Martial Arts Training & ExercisesDiscuss martial arts training and exercises here
Yeah my dad wrestled back in Greece it was kind of expected that I do the same. Some times it gets irritating when I see guys who've wrestled for like 4 years and are just better then me grrrrr I didn't compete in anything till I was seven though. Those pee wee matches are always the best just two kids falling on each other.
LOL,true. I started at age 7 (that would be '76 or something) and I don't think I won a single match until I was 13 or so!
Started WTF Tae Kwon Do (Kukkiwon certification)training at age 62 in 2000. 3rd Dan. Master S. Lawson 6th Dan from start. Master Tolbert 4th Dan also.

I got to hand it to you, motrellek. Starting a contact sport at 62. I don't know about anyone else, but for nothing else that got huge respect from me.

I have to agree with the other guys on this. Very impressive of you, motrellek. Kudos!

I think it mattered. It certainly proves that even an old buzzard can learn new tricks.
