Keep this quote in mind: Great sport begins where good health ends.

At some point in your life, performance should take a back seat to overall health and fitness. The youngsters like Pepe and Doge's kid are not there yet. But those past their athletic prime, need to be thinking about their overall health. Each person has to decide when that time has come for them.

Some things about weightlifting that needs to be stressed. A weight lifting program without a corresponding muscle stretching program is an injury waiting to happen. That yoga class at the gym will help you just as much, if not more than the weight lifting. If you are going to strengthen one part of the body, you better strengthen the connecting parts as well. If you soup up a motor in a car without beefing up the rest of the drivetrain, that drivetrain is going to fail. Same for the body.
