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)

    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?

    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.

    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.

        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.

    Probably 36, best shape of my life. I’m 43 now and it’s not bad, gotta get back at it but I felt amazing in my body in my mid thirties.

    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.

    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.
