stingrays

I'm 42 and practice TKD. Is there a senior's division? Also , I think I'm getting arthritis in my hip and spine. Serious answers only.Thanks in advance.

For those who are practicing martial arts, how frequent are the testings and do you ever skip some ( either don't feel quite ready or are instructed to sit one out). Thanks in advance

I hurt my ribs sparring, L chest, just under pec, near sternum. X rays were negative. I was wearing chest protector but the guy got a real good kick at the right spot.I was wondering how long it might take to heal, it's only been 3 days but we spar once a week and have testing in 2 weeks, thanks in advance

I just watched Merantau , about Silat. I then had to watch a Human Weapon episode about it. It seems like a really cool martial art. Does anyone out there practice it?

In a real fight or self defense situation? Thanks in advance for answering.

His technique in BloodSport was awesome and he was a real kickboxing champion.

This is a technical question-Would you bend your rear ( kicking leg) or bring it straight out. This is a taekwondo question however the crescent kick is a basic kick for most karate forms as well. Thanks in advance! I personally don't chamber my leg like a front or rounhouse and do it as one motion.
