I mean this in all positivity. Move around and lose weight if you're sporting it. I'm over 40 and I'm in better shape than I was in my 20s because I move around a lot (owning a farm helps) but it's no excuse to not move if you don't. Stop being sedentary. Move and eat less. You will be surprised how little it takes to feel good again.

Also quit smoking, vaping, anything with nicotine, which causes your discs to degrade faster.

I have degenerative disc disease at 42, I'm looking at multiple fusions.
