I am playing Baseball (In between winter and summer seasons so not playing right now) Ten Pin Bowling and recently my friend convinced me to go square dancing Grin

I have played softball and soccer prior to those.

I go to the gym 2 or 3 times a week if that can be counted here.

I used to do Karate, badmington, tennis, etc.

I like cycling and things like that though.

I use to play baseball, now I am a spectator. I very seldom practice a variety of martial art styles. (only when I need to get stress off most of the time)

I've probably played most of the common sports. I used to be very good at football and was a part of the Southampton youth program many many years ago. Cricket, cross country running, Judo black belt, Rugby, Basketball, I've played american football and had a try out for a small college in the US a few years back. These days i prefer the lazy life, all those sports have taken a massive toll on me, broken bones, torn ligaments, so on lol.

I was a county standard footballer, I represented Norfolk schoolboys 6 times and had trials with 4 professional clubs. Then I found alcohol and girls...
I held a junior black belt at Judo (well almost.. got 2 out of 3 black tags on my green belt).
I had a UK National Motor racing licence for 18 months when I was 25, I never found the funding to follow it throught though.
Now I only play darts and pool... allcomers welcome to challenge me Wink

Sport was my life at school, I LOVED it.

I do Cross Country for my school team in the Winter, do a three runs a week around the neighbour hood ( about 2.5 miles ) and then I do sprinting for my school athletics in the Summer.
I'm truly hopeless at anything which requires skill or any game with balls involved.

I like running though. Cheesy

Probably the best exercise you can have, it works all the muscles and the heart as well.

Keep it up Wink

I thought that was cycling? Most places seem to say running is bad for your joints and although it exercises your muscles, it drains you quite quickly. With cycling you can go for far longer to get more exercise from it.

Cycling obviously does it too... but running is good for fitness. It might not get you there quicker but has the same benefits.

Oh that reminds me, I need to go get a new chain for my mountain bike, I was riding low gearish up a hill for good exercise, but WAYY to much strain on my chain and it snapped right off, I was fine but my mum's look was priceless when I showed her the Chain Grin

They don't make chains like they used to. You can't get the wood you know. (Old Goon Show joke. Cheesy
