I'm 43. I didn't really feel older/slower in my 30s. My wife asked a couple times: do you really not feel like you've slowed? And really, not substantially...until hitting 40. For me 2020 was not only the year of COVID, election denial, etc...it was also the year of 'old'. I injured my bicep and, unlikely every other similar injury I've had in the past, it didn't really heal. Things that get hurt kind of just...stay hurt. I just got done with a run of PT to address a sore shoulder from throwing the ball for my dog in the summer. My 'bad' cholesterol spiked for no apparent reason: same lifestyle as usual. It sucks.

Anyways, 30 is no big deal. You're more or less as good physically as in your 20s, you're just more experienced and balanced. Entering your prime!
