54, and more injuries than I have the time to list.
When I do shuai-Jiao, even though we're easy on each other, it would take three days and alot of naproxen before I was normal again.
My sparring is limited, in SPM, we go at it, but we have a lot of control, so the dings are less common. I hate to admit it, but I'm getting the itch to enter in some point fighting again, just for s&g's. I wanna have some fun.
I am also doing more rolling, which although I can't spin out as fast as I could in my younger days, and I don't throw myself into stuff like flying armbars, it's still fun.
My flexibility has improved recently, as I started an "Tao Yoga" class in my school. It also made my back and sciatica issues stop.
I did notice something disturbing; I need to work harder to maintain my muscle mass and keep my bodyfat down. That blows. When I take time off, I lose strength and get soft (duh..yeah, but it seems to affect me more) So I need to stick to my schedule and make resistance and cardio part of my normal routine, for life.
