The short answer is no, you are never too old to start training Muay Thai.
In Thailand, most people start training Muay Thai when they are very young, often as young as 4 or 5.
For people who are less interested in going pro and just want to learn self-defense, get in shape, and maybe compete in a few low-stakes competitions, there is no age limit.
Alby began his Muay Thai training at the age of 27 and he knows people who are several decades older than him who have thrived after starting in their 30s, 40s, or 50s, though they did face some limitations.
Con: Your Body Changes Another downside about starting Muay Thai at an older age is that it takes longer to recover.
While going pro may be too ambitious for those who begin training Muay Thai later in life, there is no age limitation for those who want to use Muay Thai as a way to get in shape, learn self-defense, and become part of a community.
This can make it very difficult to regularly go to the gym Muay Thai.
You may be able to schedule one-on-one sessions with an instructor and to build out a home gym.
As Alby says, this allows us to fight smarter, not harder.

I’m a firm believer that it’s never too late to start training Muay Thai. When you begin your Muay Thai training not only will you learn a beautiful and practical martial art, but you’ll also be improving the entire spectrum of your health, so why not give it a go? Now training Muay Thai is one thing, but fighting and actually stepping in the ring to willingly get punched in the face is next level shit. That is when age becomes a real factor due to the high risk of being seriously injured. I’ve had people from as young as 18 years old all the way to 65+ ask if it’s “too late” to start training Muay Thai. No matter what the age, I always have the same answer, “It’s never too late to start training!”. So now the question is, how old is too old to fight?
