Another sign of age

May 20, 2010 07:46

When I was in Tae Kwon Do in high school, sometimes my friends of roughly the same age and I would, when the teacher's back was turned, get a little rougher practicing with each other.  Now when I spar with the young bucks in the boxing class, I get annoyed by the same behavior. Damn it, I think, I'm trying to learn the technique!

And while my knees can handle boxing itself, when the teacher has us to squating exercises, there's only so far down I can go without my knees screaming bloody murder.  Even when I do weight lifting squats, I can only go far enough that my legs are parallel to the floor.

aging, boxing
