Hi MB,
I saw in your profile that you are 70, I'm 65 and semi-retired. I think aches and pains come with the ageing territory. Maybe you're being too hard on yourself and have unreasonable expectations for what you can physically do at your age. I've noticed it takes me longer to get warmed-up for physical activities but once I do things move OK. Naps are good, hot-tubs for the muscular pain. As far as "trying", I don't much care, I just do it, have fun and screw the rest of them if they don't like it. At this point it's not a dress rehearsal anymore.
G'luck!
