Every person over 35 blames aging for their stiff, aching joints.

Turns out it's not age... it's years of neglect catching up.

Here is 8 simple ways to rebuild your joints and feel 25 again🧵:
By 35, most people feel it:

- Hips ache after sitting
- Knees crack when you stand
- You "warm up" just to walk up stairs

It’s not just soreness.

It’s your body warning you that something’s breaking down.
The joints that carried you through your 20s?

They don’t repair themselves anymore.

And every skipped stretch, poor posture, or hour in a chair... adds up.

But the good news?

You can reverse most of the damage:
This isn’t about miracle cures.

It’s about rebuilding what most people let fall apart.

With just 10 minutes a day, you can:
- Move better
- Feel stronger
- Age without pain

Here’s how to start:
1. Fix your posture

Your joints aren’t failing, your alignment is.

Years of slouching compress your spine, hips, and knees.

Stand tall. Shoulders back. Pelvis neutral.

Here's how to test your posture & an exercise to help fix it:
2. Walk 30 minutes a day

Movement is medicine—especially for joints.

It increases synovial fluid (your body’s natural joint lube), boosts circulation, and reduces stiffness.

No fancy workout needed... just walk.

The next one is VERY crucial, and not so well known:
3. Stretch your hip flexors

Sitting shortens them.
Tight hip flexors = lower back pain + knee strain.

Every morning, hit a deep lunge stretch.
Hold for 30 seconds per side.

Here's a video demonstration:
5. Supplement with collagen

Your body’s collagen production drops after 30.

That means less cushion for your joints.

Add about 10g of hydrolyzed collagen peptides daily (ideally with Vitamin C for absorption).

Check this out:
I found a great and affordable source of Collagen Peptides.

Contains the 3 most crucial collagen types, lab tested for quality, and over 8,000 positive reviews.

5. Strengthen your glutes

Weak glutes force your knees and hips to overcompensate.

Result? Joint pain.

Fix it with:
- Glute bridges
- Clamshells
- Step-ups

Here's a few more great, beginner friendly exercises to do at home:
6. Ditch the junk food

Inflammation destroys joints.
And ultra-processed foods fuel it daily.

Sugar. Seed oils. Refined carbs.

Swap them for:
- Omega-3s
- Whole foods
- Colorful veggies
7. Use resistance bands

Bands protect your joints while strengthening stabilizers.

Try:
- Lateral walks
- Band pull-aparts
- Monster walks

Here's some others for your upper body:
8. Build a daily joint care ritual

Your joints deserve the same love you give your teeth or skin.

Create a 10-minute routine:
- 3 mobility drills
- 2 strength moves
- 1 breathwork cooldown

Make it a non-negotiable.
Here's another affordable option of Collagen peptide gummies.

Specifically focused on supporting aging joints, skin, hair, and nails for those above the age of 50, and very easy to consume.

You don’t need injections.
You don’t need surgery.
You just need consistency.

Rebuild what you neglected, and your joints will thank you.

If your body’s insulin resistant, it won’t burn fat... it’ll store it.

Most people don’t realize blood sugar habits can matter more than macros.

Here are 10 cheat codes to reset insulin and trigger fat-burning again🧵

1. Walk after every meal Image
Image
Just 10 minutes can slash your glucose spike by 22%.

Why? Your muscles act like sponges, soaking up sugar before insulin has to.

3 short walks a day over 1 intense workout.
2. Eat dinner 2-3 hours before bed.

Late-night eating spikes insulin when your body is primed to store, not burn.

One study showed a 98% higher fat burn rate when dinner was moved earlier.

This is the easiest metabolic win on the planet.

Magnesium glycinate is the most powerful sleep aid no one’s talking about.

One dose calms nighttime anxiety, boosts deep sleep by 30%, and leaves you recharged and clear-headed by morning.

In this thread, I’ll explain how it works and how to use it safely🧵 Image
Image
Magnesium is needed for 300+ enzymatic reactions within your body.

But here’s the real shocker:

Nearly 70% of people are deficient, and most don't know it.

Fatigue, cramps, mood swings, poor sleep?

It might not be burnout... it could actually be a mineral deficiency.
Magnesium is neuroelectric currency.

Your brain uses it to control neurons, fire muscles, and calm your nervous system.

Deficiency? You feel:

- Wired but tired
- Panicked for no reason
- Like your battery won't recharge

Here's what happens if you get enough:

The hidden cause of stubborn belly fat, fatigue, and brain fog:

Insulin resistance.

Warning signs appear long before a diabetes diagnosis.

Here are 5 early signs to watch for (share this with someone you love)🧵

1. Skin tags. Image
Image
1. Skin tags

Insulin triggers excess growth signals to skin cells.

Over time, this creates small raised tags... often on the neck or armpits.

They’re an early warning: your cells are no longer responding well to insulin.

Ignore this, and the next signs get harder to miss...
2. Dark patches on the neck or armpits

High insulin increases activity in pigment cells (melanocytes), creating dark, velvety skin folds.

This change will usually appears before lab markers do.

Once your skin reflects metabolic dysfunction, what's happening inside?

You’re not anxious.

You’re overdosing on your own cortisol.

Here are 9 body-based ways to break the stress loop 🧵

1. Tremoring (aka Neurogenic Shaking) Image
Image
Modern stress isn’t mental.

It’s chemical.

When cortisol stays elevated for too long, it rewires your brain to expect threat... even when none exists.

Your body becomes the source of your fear.

Here’s how to physically interrupt that loop, and reset your nervous system:
1. Tremoring (aka Neurogenic Shaking)

Animals naturally shake after stress. Humans suppress it.

But this trembling discharges stored tension from the nervous system.

Try this: Lie down and let your legs shake freely for 2–3 minutes.

It looks odd. It works fast.

No matter how healthy you eat...

Your body won’t recover if your sleep is off.

Most people overlook the small changes that unlock real rest and full recovery.

So here are 8 that actually work 🧵 Image
Image
1. Keep your bedroom under 19°C

Your core temp must drop ~1°C to fall into deep sleep.

A cool room supports this drop.

In one NIH study, people in 19°C rooms had more stable REM and less waking during the night.
2. Avoid blue light at night

Screens trick your brain into thinking it's daytime.

Even 2 hours of late-night screen exposure can suppress melatonin by up to 50%.

Use blue light filters or wear amber glasses after 8PM.
