Why do you do martial arts?

Haha I was a little embarressed to say but Lupin steped up.

I too at age 6 wanted to be a power ranger. So I trained until the age of about 12 or so in shotokan karate. Then I quit for 2 years. My friend who I had started with when I was 6 had just got up to the same grade as me so me not wanting to be beaten started again. We then both graded together until I was about 16. He left, I continued.

Since then its just what I do. I don't really know why I do it now. Sometimes I ask myself this, I figure I don't see the point continuing. Im pretty comfortable that I would be able to defend myself as well as I could ever expect to. Im not particularily interested in fighting in competitions so I don't need to learn that way of thinking.

Yet when I don't train I miss it. So you tell me
