Yep, I started when I was 45, I thought to myself well you old fat bastard you're gonna die soon if you don't get off your ass!!!!! (My dad died at 52 of a heart attack) So I had like 7 years left on the clock.
Heard a radio spot for the gym and went there. It helped that Randy Couture and Wanderlei Silva were there. So I joined.
That said I trained for many years in Shaolin Gung Fu and had a black belt in that when I was 17 I also trained with many other styles throughout the years. BJJ IS WAY HARDER!!!!!!
