Turning what age hits you the hardest?

Turning 30 hit way harder than any age before that. I'm still in my early 30s so I can't say whether it will just keep getting worse or not, but for me 30 was the age when I was no longer young.

Are you male or female? That's the big difference here. You sound like a female honestly by the OP so I can't tell.

As a man every decade has gotten better. I can honestly say that.

Just turned 40 and it's awesome if you are a man with your life together. I'm fit, have money and a career and look better than I ever did.

If you are woman it's the opposite experience - you are your best looking and have the most opportunities when you are in your 20s and it's all down here from there. Aging hits woman harder, faster and is more cruel. Lots of woman start to lose their mind from mid to late 30s because of this.

No age has hit me hard. 50 will be weird though because that sounds old.

55 was it for me. It was a sharp downhill decline in performance. Much more than I expected. I made the mistake like many other to look at the age group stars who run so well. What I didn't notice at first was that they started running much later than I did.

75. My bench press went from 850 at age 70 down to 550 at 75.

Turning 30 hit pretty hard. My metabolism changed a lot and quite suddenly. Up to that point I could eat whatever and it didn’t make a lot of difference, but around that time it changed. I could really feel the impact of my diet in my energy levels. I also started to struggle with sleep more.

im in my mid 40s now and the changes since 30 have been more gradual. I have to be more focused around recovery, but the changes since 30 haven’t been as abrupt for me. Part of the change also came with more job responsibility and kids, but that’s only partly physical and more related to balancing time and stress.

What exactly are you asking? Recovery? That gets harder when you're about 30 and it will continue to get harder every 5 to 10 years? Signs of aging? You'll start to get tired in your 40s, if you wear glasses you might need to take them off for reading while wear them for driving? You might get the beginnings of cataracts in your 60s and even if you always had low blood pressure while young it's not a typical for blood pressure to be above normal. You might start to have prostate problems or gynecological issues. You'll fear cancer which statistically you and your friends will deal with. Of course this is contingent upon diet and exercise which will probably have to change. You'll need to eat fewer carbs and more healthy proteins. But genetics will play a role more than ever.

Personally I'm happier and more content now than in my 30s. Aging sometimes sucks but being old is fine with the right attitude and support system.

I turned 30 this year. It wasn't a big deal. I've always thought of 35 as the end of young adulthood and the beginning of middle age. That'll probably hit harder.

Just stop being lazy and binge eating crap. Nothing to do with age.

After 25, life seems to move at warp speed. Take each milestone as it comes and be thankful for what you have and that you are still here. 50 was the worst for me as I know I've lived longer than I will. As each milestone does come and go, you will adjust. The key is to focus on the positive in your life, as it always could be worse. Besides, you have 2 choices: get older or don't.

Is that Oz, Lb, or Kg?

Yet I had an aunt who still looked like a movie star in her 80s!

You should get more confident as you get older.

24 hit me hard because i felt too old to act like a college kid. 30 hit me hard because you are definitely an adult at that point. I haven't really cared since then. GOnna be 43 in a month +

most of these numbers are fairly arbitrary and just depends on the perception of the individual, and where you are in life when you hit those numbers. easy to see why you get so many different answers to questions like this.

When Foreman knocked out Moorer at age 45 to regain the title, old man strength was flying high. After the Tyson debacle on Friday, we're all ready for the nursing home.

A recent study said 2 ages of rapid aging on average are 44 and 60. Most masters runners I have known seem to have a dramatic performance decline around 50, then again in their 60s. Maybe running hods it off a few years.

The age number was never an issue for me, but I did buy a Porsche at age 24 and called it my mid life crisis car. Glad that wasn't true. My physical decline was noticeable in my late 40s. Now mid 50 and still fitter than most 30s.

When you're 20, you think everyone is looking at you;

When you're 40, you think everyone is looking at you, but you don't care;

When you're 60, you realize nobody was really ever looking at you after all.

You’re only 42? I would have pegged you as at least 65-70
