this makes no sense.

you just said that your recovery, food tolerance, etc. is declining. It means you already peaked biologically. The peak was when you weren't stiff after a hard day of lifting and when your chit didn't crack and pop.

Turning 27 soon and feel the same as I was at 21.

I've been healthy, dont drink often, and have been physically active most of my life, I'm sure this has helped.

Yesterday i went on a 3-4 mile hike and now today my knees are stinging/hurting, Not bad enough to really hurt but its still there. This never used to happen until like a year ago. Fuking sucks.
I like the tuna here.

Quite the opposite happened for me....I rotted from age 16 to about 21...ate like chit, was chubby, etc. Once i learned about the gym and started seeing some gains life became 100 times better. I actually feel like i have more energy now than my virgin fat self did back when i was 18 lol. Life is infinitely better now for me.

30 now.

Strength has gone up, and my agility is the same.

I think it has more to do with being at a lower weight, body fat, and how you train.

E.g. At 5'9, I've always been about 160lbs - 175lbs @10% body fat, and stay away from doing heavy deadlifts and squats. I know others who've been squatting and deadlifting but have joint and knee problems. I can only imagine what they will feel like in their 40s and 50s.

I'll say 34 or so. 37 now.

But still, at a fat 225 I can still run a 4.9 40(after a year layoff from all sprinting after knee surgery, might be a little quicker now). I'm not as strong but I don't train as heavy, either.

Other than the freak knee injury, I've been injury free. I don't have any aches and pains. I play rec sports with 20 year olds no prob. The reason I say I have declined is because I do need more recovery. I can't play a basketball game then squat the next day. I can't throw a football 100 times and do it again the next day.
