ahhh, taekwondo
Tis a great martial art, did it years ago and wish I never gave it up. Now I creak when I sit down, I think it might be too late to take it up again :o(

Get your ass to the dojo. You'll be back in shape in no time.

yeah
was the fittest I'd been in my life when I was doing taekwon... was shite at it but was fun. But my knees would seriously complain if I did it now

Just do what you can
I had a 70 year old guy teaching me aikido once upon a time.
He was an old guy, stiff and a bit slow, but he could still take a fall like the best of em.
I'll bet if you visit a physio they will give you simple leg exercises that stop the squeaking.
Inactivity is the most damaging thing you can do.

My son is doing a strenght and conditioning degree
He is concentrating some of his thesis on working on geriatrics, he told me this morning that with a proper programme you can get an 80 year old to put on muscle mass.
