Can you Do all the Same sort of things That you Could do When you were a Child?

Question

I hope this makes sense---I use to be so great at Gymnastics and now not so much----I can do some,but not like when I was 12.

Answer 1

Well... I can still play twister... but now I play it nude, and with olive oil.....

Answer 2

I know exactly what you mean. I can't even do back bends anymore. When I was younger, my dad told me that someday I wouldn't be so limber. I was very agile, at the time, and found that hard to believe. My dad was right about so many things.

Answer 3

I sure can. And I have a higher tolerance of pain so all those things I used to do don't hurt me as much as it used to.

Answer 4

No. I lost some speed, some flexibility, and some curiosity. But I gained some intelligence...I think.

Answer 5

I can still do most everything...however, not gonna attempt handsprings across the lawn into the neighbor's yard!

Answer 7

I can't sleep until noon and then run around outside all day until sunset.

Time takes its toll on us all sooner
