Take Rodger Federer for example. He was into 40s still playing tennis at the top level. Tennis in particular seems absolutely brutal to body. Not only does it require you to hit the ball million times a day over and over again the same movement.
But it requires extremely fast change of speed and direction of your movement. I mean chasing the ball to the left and sliding or sliding to the left and suddenly realizing the ball is going to the right, aborting the slide and sliding to the right.
How do athletes like these keep their ankles, knees and hips healthy. I’m 24 and feel like my knees were done almost 5 years ago.
I wanna know what they do, how do they excercise and what drugs and shots they take.

Roger Federer is a professional Tennis athlete. One of the best to ever do it. When he goes to work, he goes to play or study tennis. Now you can train 10 hours a day every day, so he hired a massage therapist and physio to monitor his body’s durability and maintain it.
When he needs to eat, he will have a nutritionist and/or private chef preparing all the correct food and snacks needed to fuel a high level tennis athlete.
He probably has PA of some sort or management rhatchandle his very busy schedule and arrange all his transport, accommodation and food.
In essence, all he does is focus on tennis and doing it for as long as possible. He has time in his day to have preventative massage and physiotherapy to prevent injuries and maintain a high level of performance.
Unless you can dedicate your entire life to the sport or physical exercise, you won’t achieve the same results.
Being a healthy and fit adult takes alot of work and discipline if your work life allows you the time to focus on it
