Is it too late to learn boxing in your late 30s
>>
yup. it's over
>>
>>76582517
Yeah it's illegal, the government will lock you up if you try.
>>
>>76582517
It's probably not a good idea to get punched in the head, but go for it
>>
>>76582517
isn't boxing just two guys punching each other? what's there to learn?
>>
>>76582517
If I saw i late 30s boomer at my gym i would knock his ass out so fast it wouldn't even be funny
>>
no, but don't expect to go pro or whatever but hey crazy shit happens all the time bruva
>>
>>76582517
Probably is, but butterbean started boxing in his 30's
>>
Nah, within 3 months you'll be better at boxing that anyone who never boxed. Just a bit of martial art training is a huge difference vs no training at all. If you're in good shape and motivated you can reach a decent casual level and after a couple of years you'll be good at it.
Yeah there are going to be 15 years olds that will beat your shit without breaking a sweat at first but don't let it filter you.
>>
>>76582517
Too late for what? To compete? Probably. Even then try it. I started wrestling at 17 and was still p good at it.
>>
>>76582517
>is it too late to learn how to defend yourself
no
>>
>>76582517
if you are still getting into fist fights in your 30s, you made some very bad life choices
>>

You never know when ‘lunch time rowdie youfs’ might attack you
>>
You'll not find anyone willing to teach you real boxing, but you can certainly go to a boxing gym where they do that shit for cardio
>>
>>76582517
90% of the people itt watched some ippo and think they know everything about "real" boxing.
The best thing you can do is go talk to a boxing gym near you and ask.

explain why in prison, older guys beat up young inmates
>>
>>76583038
Because older guys that end up in prison are people who are more likely to have fighting experience and they had the time to get that experience.
A young inmate who is proficient at some martial art will also beat up most other inmates.
Leave your pride at the door if you're going to try boxing.
>>
Depends, do you want to be a 40 year old guy who knows how to box? If so then you gotta do it anyway.

I'm 30 and I'm considering going into tai chi for the first time once I'm done my current cut.
