I was trying to find a polite way of addressing those of us over 40...I think seasoned works.
I'm looking at testing for 4th Dan in March. I've been loosing weight & getting back into shape after a long injury. I work on poomsae weekly on my own a part from my teaching regular classes.
I tell you that background to ask the question, how long do you train (not prepare, but train) before your actual test day? I still have that "young guy" thought process that says, "go all out every day, now until March." But I know that's not realistic or healthy. I want to be able to give it my best & as injury free as possible.
