If you could keep your body at a certain physical age...

What age would you choose? Mentally you still keep growing and you keep your normal life span. Also, what age are you currently?

  • 18 - I thought I was fat because waifs were in style, but my body was actually banging. I'm 72. I would most of all appreciate being arthritis free, with major organs all working at optimum.

    Look after your knees, people.

  • 23-27, that’s the age when I stopped feeling too young, but still had a serviceable amount of hair and could grow a good beard. Also I miss being horny. Late-thirties now.

  • Don't need the whole body, just turn all my joints/cartilage/soft tissue back to 18 and I'll just keep it moving (literally)

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • As much as I'd like to say like 21, probably 25 since that's when your brain is apparently fully developed.
