If it can give me the body I had when I was in my 20s sure.

Go to the gym and say confidently I heard one of you pussies in here can get me shredded like a bag of sharp cheddar. Then work out with your new friends and get scary big.

I think you’re gonna need a montage.

I don't have the video editing skills to do that very well. I could probably throw some Liam Neeson fight scene jump cuts your way.

What if I only want to be medium cheddar???

Then by the power vested in me by myself, your gonna be so medium. Extra medium and extra cheesy.

This is so wholesome but I can't figure out why.

That's because you don't understand the innuendo. Yet.

Of course if he said he didn't know the answer is obviously he didn't know, but he's not going to say he doesn't know, he would never say he doesn't know

BECAUSE OF THE IMPLICATION

Honestly, true gym bros are usually really helpful and appreciate it when others show an interest in their hobby.

There would probably be at least one guy willing to help show you around the gym and start training.

That's what I'm saying if you don't have my comedic tone and Appalachian accent, you might try not calling the whole gym pussies. But there's generally someone in a gym that's cool as hell and knows a disturbing amount about anatomy. They will pump you up.

Yeah ik, there's just some others in the comments joking that this would get you beat up, which I think is unrealistic.

Only thing you learn then is how to let your sack sag in public locker rooms and develop an immunity to shame. Just like real old folks.

That's the end goal of anti aging.

It’s awesome, but a bone marrow transplant isn’t a feasible option unless I get leukemia. If I get leukemia, you bet your ass I’m gonna get the transplant from somebody that is immune to HIV.

Not really. Anti-aging will most likely be a preventative measure, not a treatment. If you’re already old then you will probably stay that way.

Νο.

Νο one is working on stopping metabolism from creating damage, but instead reversing aging. Whether it's Aubrey de Grey's damage-repair approach, Altos Labs' Yamanaka based cellural reprogramming, etc.

It's called rejuvenation medicine.

Ok.

Doesn’t change the fact that aging-prevention will come far before aging-reversal. It is way easier to stop a mug from shattering in the first place than it is to glue it back together. Hope I’m wrong tho.

Not really. If you can repair the damage accumulation just exactly at the same rate it's being laid down, then you can do it a bit faster which means reverse it.

It can give you the body you had at 60 presuming you made it to 80.
