Thinking about getting into an exercise routine to help me quit smoking and help with my hypoglycemia which is starting to get noticeable and I was thinking about this martial art. Figure if seniors can do it it'd be about my level being out of shape as I am. I used to do some very casual martial arts and sparing when I was part of a club in college so I'm not totally a novice.

What do you think, if you do it what's it like?

    I did it for half a year cause it was offered as a course by my university's sports department. It definitely was very fun and relaxing (and that vibe of unity that a lot of eastern martial arts have when everyone is doing the exact same routine at once is so cool), but just a bit too low impact for me.

    It might be perfect for you tho! Group settings are great for accountability which is the hardest part of starting a new exercise routine ^^
