jjonesx2 Posted September 23, 2007 Posted September 23, 2007 My wife and I were thinking about joining to school that we just signed our boys up at. I am 33 and she is 30. Are there a lot of others that start at this age or later? How long do they usually last at it? Any other input would be greatly appreciated.
P.A.L Posted September 23, 2007 Posted September 23, 2007 don't worry go for it. i know many, most of them doing great because they are more consistent.

GMac Posted September 23, 2007 Posted September 23, 2007 I started 3 years ago at age 38 and am still loving it. So I don't think you are too old.
Jay Posted September 23, 2007 Posted September 23, 2007 I know people that have started alot older than that just go for it The key to everything is continuity achieved by discipline.
