What age would you choose? Mentally you still keep growing and you keep your normal life span. Also, what age are you currently?
Age 20.
Wait. If the body stays at that age. What happens when the mind dies? Does the body still keep going? Blood keep pumping? What do we do with the bodies? Billions of bodies? Burn the bodies for power generation?
22, peak army physical fitness. After Iraq, my mental state made it very difficult to keep it up and that started the decline. I’m now 40, with back, feet, ankle and knee problems despite not being hugely overweight.
About 28 or 29. I’m currently mid 30s and starting to have a bit less energy than I used to.
Felt like sometime after turning 30, something changed like a switch was flipped. Suddenly started gaining weight out of nowhere. Lol
Thirties. I was skinny, had thick hair, and I didn’t hurt all over.
26 was the last age I didn’t notice wrinkles and could grow a good beard. The beard keeps people from perceiving you as young.
I think ~30 is the golden age. It’s a good middle ground.
- Back when I was whole of body.
Currently 30.
25, cause I started having arthritis symptoms at 26. I just wanna move my fingers fully again…
Ouch, I’m so sorry you’re having to deal with this!
It’s not actively hurting me, but I don’t have full range of motion when grabbing things, my grip strength is way down, and it does hurt sometimes. It’s like an 80% it’s OK, 20% it sucks kinda bad type thing.
29, and I’m… uh… I stopped counting at forty.
At 29 I was done growing, used to my adult body, hadn’t yet developed some of my current bad habits, and still had a youthful metabolism.
22 for me.
When I was around 22 I was in the best shape of my life. Assuming that the prompt means going back to the same state, I’d take it with no hesitation. It was before I damaged both my shoulders and started putting on weight, and it was before the chronic illness I have had shown itself and caused a lot more problems for me.
If it means that my body is reverted and not my mind, I could go to see my doctor and make sure that none of the damage happens, and be in a much better condition than I am now.
I actually think it would be cool to be in your 70s - you can still do most things and can mostly think straight but other people think you cannot and so they don’t bother pestering you.
I guess I’m the weird one choosing a much younger age. Perfect for me would be 16-18. Feel like that was when my body was most resilient.
I was going to say 17. Adult sized with childlike resilience.
I’d wanna go back to 22, currently almost 30. I developed a lot of health complications around 23-24, and 22 is the last time I remember my body not being in constant pain.
I am not a follower of Islam, but I have read some of the materials, and they said that in heaven everyone will be 30 years old.
That seems like a pretty decent age. Like you’re old enough to be an adult at 30, but you’re still young enough to be able to enjoy life if you didn’t have soul-crushing work to do.
Literally right now. Mid 30s. I’ll be running my first marathon this year.
