OK well my counter story is that I move a lot for work too and I'm only slightly overweight but my upper back feels like it's going to break in half when I wake up in the mornings, and my lower back tingles like a 9 volt battery to the tongue just always. 32 yo.

I guess just do whatever and maybe your back will feel fine and maybe it won't. Just like all health advice.

You might need a better mattress if that's how you wake up like that. Especially if it gets better during the day.

My cousin did construction work for a number of years and it wore this body out. He had to retire in his 40s.
