bushido_man96 Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 39, Here but I might as well be 40 Not too far til the 4-Zero. The bright side, you could be 49 pushing 50 It seems like once you get past 30, all we do is push... https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hx35543 Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Made 40 this year. Started training about 2 years ago in Tang Soo Do. I was always athletic from weightlifting and bodybuilding. Since my worn body no longer allows me to lift like I used to, martial arts has given me a new focus I had once lost sight of. But aches and pains abound.

arcelt Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 33...been training for 11 years, but not consecutively... From 9 until 19 in Goju Ryu and then from 32 until now in TKD and Aikido... There is a definite deficiency in flexibility now but also a definite plus in strength. My joints hurt more and I don't seem to bounce back from injury like I used to.What I wouldn't give to have my 20s back.

Fountain38 Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Hello all. I have a seven year old in soo bahk do. I am really enjoying watching him and I find myself wanting to learn. My question is am I too old? Now before you say yes, understand that I'm 55 yrs old. I just started over with my second family. I'm in shape and don't have any limitations that I know of. In your opinion am I too old for this? thanks for your advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarateGeorge Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Hello all. I have a seven year old in soo bahk do. I am really enjoying watching him and I find myself wanting to learn.

In your opinion am I too old for this? thanks for your adviceCertainly not! In fact, at my karate school, we had a gentleman who was 65 years old who decided to take up karate after watching his granddaughter in class. If it seems like something you'd enjoy, get in there and start learning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
