I’ve been doing this for close to 5 years and it’s definitely taking small tolls on my body. I’m early thirty’s so it might just be my age catching up too.

Anyone got some advice or tips on how to keep my body in good shape? Like do some of y’all ice your hands and legs or do specific workouts for this job?

I feel like a ton of dudes in the trades just ignore their bodies and ride it out. Then at 50 complain about blown out backs and shot out knees. I wanna avoid that if it’s even possible.
