Build up your Skill on wild animals, Thats generally  how I go about it.
And If your using genesis mod you are able to craft Bone armour  from what you kill  which helps when you start fighting Crossbows/ bowmen

whatever you do  DO NOT  attack elephants  they are very good at removing limbs, Every time my peasant adventurer has fought an elephant they have lost atleast an arm or foot.

That's the thing, I wouldn't mind grinding a few legendary skills, by all means I'd find it enjoyable, but animals are too darn fast. Even when I start out with 1,200 speed. :s

Tip:  Fight nothing that's larger than you until you're experienced.  Horses, llamas, rhinos,elephants, and similar creatures will all maim you horribly.  If you can spare the stat points, try putting a few points into the social skills.  It lets you get a few companions without killing anything.
