I can’t get that old, ever. I am 45 next year, and it’s like Oscar Wilde had said: “The tragedy of growing old is not that one is old but that one is young” and you have to show that. Starting with jiu jitsu next month. Let’s roll!
Only if you let it. Treat every injury as a sign to rest and recover, don’t overdo it, and don’t fight a submission you already lost.
I’ve been doing it for 17 years and I feel great. Had a few injuries over the years and I always take time off and do active recovery instead while I’m injured.

Oh see I love my forties. I’m almost 50 and I like that too. It rocks!
45 y/o here that’s been doing jiujitsu for 17 years. Hit me up if you need any tips.
Must not be very good if this newbie can hit you up that easily…
BJJ will keep you mentally young but your body will start feeling a lot older. Upside is that it’ll be able to do more cool stuff.
