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

    1. Old enough to do adult things. Body can process alcohol in a single night. Boner worked on command, not that it doesn’t now but I feel like it was more so back then.

    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, 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.

    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.

    Late 20s. Full head of hair, putting on muscle happened almost accidentally etc.

    I’m in better shape now but if I trained then like I have to now…

      Yeah, 21 because the hair, energy, lack of heartburn, ability to eat/drink anything all the time. I could run 10 miles averaging 6 min miles. Now my ankles and knees feel like I ran 10 miles daily for years on cement. (35)

    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.

    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?

    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.

    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.

    For me, I’d stay somewhere in my mid-30s. Not too young looking, but still able to do things. I’m currently in my mid-40s

      Same but 34 exactly, here. At 35 one of my wisdom teeth started acting up, and I didn’t even become any wiser.

    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.
