Physical Activities. : Othor Games

Anyone here participate in a physically demanding activity? Do you play a team sport? Lift weights? Cycle? Are you a construction worker?

Just sating my curiosity.

I lift weights, cycle, walk the dogs, row, kayak and rock climb. Also, yoga and pilates.

Nope. I'm completely paralyzed like Stephen Hawking. Minus the mind of a genius.

Past years: Climbed trees, climbed rocks, played in a football team, joined a simming club, did loads of cycle trips, done weights, sit-ups and press-ups.

Nowadays: Walk the dog, odd cycle to the shops, odd lift of a weight, walk to the bus stop and most demanding of all - get up at 6am every morning.

I'm currently training for a marathon in September, and also lift weights at the gum every day. I usually mix up what I do with some swimming, or cycling, and also play sport each week. I'm fairly fit, enjoy exercise and studying at University.

"I work out..."

I like to say I train, because I've been working out for nearly 2 years now.

WIggle. Wiggle. Wiggle. Wiggle. WIggle. Yeah...

I'd like to say I'm the most active person in the world, but I'm not. Over the past years I've done a few martial arts and played a lot of football. Now days I just have a daily work out routine that I have to try really hard to stick too, and am looking into playing football again here at Uni.

Edit: Damn you Papafern, beat me too it.

Although it is tempting to go for an angry run, yes, I have essays to submit

I train regularly. I play football (soccer for you yanks :tongue:

) and do running aswell. I avoid too much strength training though as I prefer being thin and agile. Some people say I need to gain some weight through strength training but I'm terrified of ruining my endurance by needing more oxygen for more muscles. I know I'm just slightly paranoid when it comes to this but apart from that I'm in good shape.

I did physical activities once. It was horrible. :mellow:

I have a rather physically demanding job working for UPS in one of the big shipping hubs.

Also, I practice martial arts. Then, of course, there's paintball/airsoft and the like. In the warm months, there's swimming, water skiing, biking, hiking and skydiving.

» Sat May 12, 2012 7:23 pm

I used to run, swam, cycled, was going to go into competative cycling, did weights, did rock climbing rope and otherwise, abseiling, aerobics, bush walking, kendo, occasional sword training, paintball.

I go to they gym daily, mainly I focus on muscle gain but I will be switching gear here in a week or so to better my definition.

» Sun May 13, 2012 6:50 am

I am a tennis coach, so that's pretty intense. I try and go to the gym, or run daily and I ski too.

» Sat May 12, 2012 8:07 pm

I've really fallen out of the habit lately, but I used to run, cycle and I started practicing karate. Really, really need to start running and fix my bleeding bike.

Pretty much. Frankly I don't appreciate having to move my fingers enough to type this post, either.

I do push ups, go for a run every once in a while, and sit ups. And squats, I just got up and did squats in a baseball stadium and I was escorted out for 'vulgar movement and behavior'. :blink:

It was an near empty stadium, mind you.
