Hey, need some advice or encouragement. Just completed my 4th day of basics class. I’ve never done any form of martial arts in my life. I’m in relatively good shape, I did 5 yrs of CrossFit and go to the gym 4-5 days (HIIT & weights). However, this is like learning a new language. I’m SO slow and I don’t hit hard especially my shins when I kick the bag, no pop and my shins hurt when I hit the bag. I know if I keep at it I should improve, but bros, this is going to be an uphill battle for me I think. My primary goals are Fitness and of course learning some self-defense is always a good thing. So the stupid question of the day is, do I stick with this or am I too old?
