Bad english warning, sorry in advance.
I'm 40.
I've studied muay thai for a few years but was always kinda bad even if I got better with time.
But then I took a bad hit in sparring and got scared, so I stopped training for 1 year.
Then I took some MMA-like karate this year for 2 test sessions to see if I liked it and I did but...hurt my knee (not sure how exactly, probably rolls, ground work and such, since I'm not used to those at all)
It's ok but I have to take some rest...and there's an history of bad knees in the family even if that's probably not something you inheritate. I don't know. Anyway...
I feel weak and I don't know if I can take another sparring martial art/sport. But I love fighting and I also want to be able to defend myself.
So there's things like aikido which, all due repect, are probably fun but not very useful in real life, or sports like fencing, kendo, same...(you don't really carry similar weapons IRL).
Is there any other options I could look into?
Or, what I'm thinking about more : can I train alone and would that be stupid to expect progress like that for real fighting?
I will try to build my body and cardio from basically nothing (I'm realtively frail since I stopped exercising and was never that good anyway), but what about defense?
And, something I never looked into so far, but what about less hand to hand defense? In a country where you can't carry weapon...
