I teach reformer Pilates and load of people who work out and are fit have weak glutes, a it's hard to isolate them and they can be lazy. But at 37 you are nowhere near chair age! I'm 50 next year and I'm nowhere near chair age. Definitely try and sort your posture, do Pilates (reformer if you can, strengthen your hips, spine, core, glutes), and walk a lot. Next year I reckon you'll feel a huge difference.
This is going to sound patronizing (not intended) but strip out the shite and only carry the essentials in a smaller backpack. Also get one that is not too "proud" from the back as your fellow ravers will really appreciate that. Being clobbered by large backpacks is a pain.
Have a look at the osprey daylite plus. I can get a raincoat, battery bank, site radio plus bits and bobs AND a 3 litre cider pouch in that and it's a very well put together small pack.
Nope... entered and exited the site at least twice a day via Gate C, each time wearing a backpack and small satchel / 'man bag.' And sometimes carrying a shopping bag of beer too... Not once, across the whole weekend, did I get searched... Not once.
But I'm a chubby, tall, middle aged bloke wearing plain clothes... And my very thin Derbyshire accent doesn't raise any pulses... So I'm guessing I don't fit any of the 'profiles' that they were on to.
There was a lot of profiling going on this year, and it's a shame to see. Profiling because of an accent / city of residence, or because of the clothes somebody wears, surely goes against everything Glastonbury stands for.
