When someone asked me recently what I'm into I didn't have answers. Existential crisis aside, what are some good hobbies/interests for someone in their mid thirties to pick up?

Weight lifting. As your body ages retaining muscle mass gets harder, and more important. Develop the habit now so you’re not trying to pick up weight lifting in your 60s when the doctors tell you to start.

This one so much. I started lifting 3-4 years ago. It made the single largest improvement to my overall life quality of anything else I've ever done. The benefits are massive, impossible to overstate them.
