go to a doctor, you shouldn't have any significant difficulties until your 40s.

I was a mess in my mid 20s, so I am as good as I have ever been at 27.

I am still making progress, but roids seem awesome. I just don't want to have to deal with all of the headaches and pitfalls that I believe invariably exist.

Maybe in another 5 years.

Ya that wasnt very clear. Im not saying its all hormonal although thats maybe 10% of it. Just with a big boy job and kids you just lose time that before would have been dedicated to gym or pickup games with the bros. Didnt even play the coed softball league this year and that is about as soft as you can be but i like to spend time off with my son now. I could make more time for fitness I know that. I could be running right now or in the gym. You just make concessions at this age with the responsibilities that come with adulthood that I didnt have when I was a 23 yo running around without a fuck to give. Just hate seeing these kids pass me on the field or gym ect

>you shouldn't have any significant difficulties until your 40s.

I'm 37. Your body changes past your 30s. Your stamina changes.
I'm in the best shape of my life because lifting but there are certain things I can't do like before:
>go to a party and have a couple beers; next day fog brained at job
>workout hard; more recovery needed
>eat junk food one meal because reasons; stomach is fucked for 3 days
>wanna sleep 9 hours; good luck if you can get 7 hours sleep unless you're phisically wasted

The list could go on, you get the idea

I understand OP. And that's why it's SO FUCKING IMPORTANT to stay in shape past your mid 30s. People that don´t do it are fucked up before they even realize it.

>can't practice everyday in sport of interest
>wonders why he isn't performing as he used to back in school days

its like school didn't do shit for you

>>37461327
I think youre missing the point

>>37461002
That's getting older for you.You need to set new achievable goals considering your age and recovery time.

I'm 32, the only significant difference I've noticed is increased need for recovery time. It manifests as lethargy, grumpiness, brain fog, etc. I can't bang out four or five intense sessions a week without shitty consequences.

Steroids would reverse this, but I'm not interested. The one nice thing is that everyone else my age has already let themselves go so I'm a champ compared to them.

> choosing a stressful job

it's like you want to live a miserable life and die early

>>37462024

>>37462052

you don't need a stressful job to do that.

what's the deal with not sleeping much? 7 hrs sound perfectly reasonable to me

>>37462061
