If you're athletic and get on some good PEDs, and only fight on the ammy circuit yes you can still do it. I'm being serious too. Nothing wrong with some gear to turn back the clock. You just need some fundamentals and not to fight to high of competition level. You can do it if you train properly. 40 isn't that old for the minor leagues if you catch on decently.Serious question guys. I've been pretty active in sports since I was very young and I currently get to the gym doing basic weight training a few times a week. My cardio isn't that great mainly cause I don't like running on the hamster-mill, but I'm sure I can built it up with some hard work.
I'm about 5-11 and 180lbs of fast twitch fiber muscle. I think I have good bio-mechanics in general and I can throw fundamental punches and kicks.
If I really wanted to CM Punk it and go for it (and I am way more athletic then that fool), is it realistic that I can compete as an amateur or pro at some point? What's a realistic time to train and get into the cage? I don't have any belt rating or prior martial arts experience. My only advantages are my athleticism and strength. Since I'm 180lb with no diet, I would probably fight at 170lb.
I'm wondering if anyone has gone on this journey post 40 and if you can share your experience?
Ive seen plenty of guys over 40 kick some major ass on the small shows. You don't have to have a ton of experience, just competent and in shape. Go for it and fuck all these haters. My last fight was at almost 34 and I won easily. You still have your power
