Age doesn't matter. It means nothing.
I am in just as good shape as most of the 24 year olds. On the off days, I run, lift weights and stretch. For my size, I am as strong or stronger as the 20 somethings and I am so flexible I can just about do the splits.
When I loose to someone my size, it is because the younger guys Jiu Jitsu is better. Period.
I am sore some mornings after class. But, that happened too when I was in my 20's. I consider the age thing to be the biggest myth on the planet. It is just an excuse.

just because you are Randy Couture doesn't mean all guys in their 40's and 50's are Randy Couture.
you are the exception to the rule, Oldguy
