*I made a same thread at /k/ because the traffic there flows faster, but I posted here anyways for expert advices*

My unker is interested to join boxing, muay thai specifically, I introduced him to a trainer, but the trainer seems very surprised, my unker is mid-age(55), retiring this year.

I know he is willing to learn, but can his aging body takes it? I'm worried about that.

Even the trainer told him that old people normally don't stand a chance, but he said the robbers are getting wilder these days, it's better to equip himself, especially with 8 limbs.

Hmm, problem with robbers nowadays, they're extremely dangerous and they wont care. These robbers, some of them are willing to attack you from the back you see :/

Nobody will know except him, since everyone is built differently. Perhaps ask if he can go for one or two classes as a test run (probably not free, though) and see how he feels. He's not going to be training/fighting like an elite level fighter from day one anyway, you've got to start from somewhere.

Then let him have a go at it. If anything, the exercise aspect of it will do him good.

Exercise is always good, no matter at what age. Self-defense is useful too. Just don't over-exert.

H&F is serious business flex.gif

BTW TS I think martial arts can always be toned down to fit an individual's fitness level.

Sort of yoga for this dude :

trainee..just started. highly recommended smile.gif I really love this place. Clean , friendly trainer (kru tanwa) all types of trainees there so you wont feel shy working out with them..

schedule also quite okay they have brazilianjiujitsu , yoga , RIP60 package which is super awesome. I just saw their cardio muay thai yesterday..tough man. If you eat 2000 cals per day , that class will burn 1000 for you (maybe more)

lol super semangat punya explanation. But you can always try out their trials for a week for free..smile.gif

price depends on which package you take tongue.gif got student and adult.. 3months / 6 months / 1 year / 2 years and depends on which martial arts you want to sign up for.

Best if you enquire them biggrin.gif immediately reply one..they have facebook !

klang valley area right ? which part to be more precised..
