Back in high school I had my knee folded in half sideways.. like side of foot towards my hip and it tore my ACL and some of my LCL. It’s since healed I’m 30 and now I train 4 days a week at bjj/judo. Tonight while rolling my “bad” knee popped. LOUD, but no pain, and this morning it just feels loose… does anyone have any recommendations on a brace or sleeve I could use for drills and rolling that would just help add stability to that knee. That injury was very painful and not fun to heal and I’d rather not go through it again so I’d love to add some support to try and prevent it! Any recommendations would be appreciated :)

I’m a 30 year old female, I’ve been around mma my whole life, my dad was a fighter. How realistic is it for me to begin training and competing at my age? I never had the confidence when I was younger but recently lost 100lb and starting to really work on myself mentally and physically and would love to prove to myself I could do this. From an experienced training pov is it possible or have I missed the prime years to begin ?
