If everything hurts in your thirties you might need to take stock as to why. If you aren't in a labor intensive job and you don't have a history of accidents you might consider changing your behaviors to try to reduce how much chronic pain you experience.
Yeah. I'm 44 and in terrible shape (in terms of exercise, etc.), but even so, I'm a long way from "everything hurts".
Unfortunately, it's not always that easy. I tried so many things, so many types of sports, been to so many doctors and specialists and none of that really helped. I know it's important to stay active and I am, and I think I found a routine that's giving me some relief, but it's not like it's going away. Years ago, I would've said similar things like you, but chronic pain really is a complex thing
