Until you sport too much and get an injury, and then it’s just a chain reaction of things breaking down because you can’t exercise them like you used to.
Yeah it’s a terrible feeling giving up a sport bc it’s too hard on ya. Like I really love Judo but I just can’t throw myself at the floor repeatedly any more. But I might be able to do Aikido or low-contact Karate (or just strength training which is what I chose). The trick is knowing when to move on, and it’s a tough decision.

Aikido will not over extend your joints, if you have trouble with even safe falls I can’t imagine the instructor would require you to do them.
