That is atypical.
Now if you become one with a chair for most of the day, expect it in your 40s. And expect an active 80+ year old to physically kick your ass by the time you hit 60.
But 30s? That’s an outlier.
If the wheel was emotional pain, I think it would be more appropriate.
Psychic troubles will sooner or later affect the body and might explain what the meme describes.
No joke.
I had about 15 years between 30 and 45 as a zero-exercise desk jockey and it early killed me.
The deterioration was unreal. Took a few years to get back fitness and any kind of core strength.
So, my best advice to young people with desk jobs : Keep up your exercise, even if it’s just a little.
Prophetic typo
Back pain stared when I was 10 then my knees in my mid 20s. Buy a good mattress and go to the gym people!
Hey I'm exceptional at something at last.
I dunno about it being as much of an outlier nowadays. People seem to sit a lot for their jobs, and then glue themselves to their couch when they get home.
Getting up and walking around a bit goes a long way.
You underestimate my unity with my chair.
