how old were you when your body started showing the wear and tear of training?

My body is a wreck from playing rugby and weights. Now i train with longevity in mind. No forced reps, don't go below 5 reps, use supports where necessary, ie always wear a belt, never juiced and i am very fussy about using proper technique, not justsaying i use proper technique.

And i'm still growing muscle.

I jumped into dance easily because I had been a long time martial arts student as a kid. I started studying various karate styles at 12... moved into kung fu forms by 15. At 20, I moved to Colorado where there were NO good martial arts schools... and I wanted to maintain my leg speed and control and improve on it...

George, there's no need to justify why you took up dance. We're all mature open minded adults here. I'm sure lots of other women here did the same thing!
