I played table tennis but gradually stopped playing it. I used to play a lot of football till the 11th grade, and even got selected for a football camp. But unfortunately, I got a knee injury which is permanent and thus a big no to all the sports. Maybe once I am in college i can get a surgery done and hope to play soon again. But watching football is equally enjoyable.

There should be a part that says I'm a lazy ass and don't play anything. I need to workout more. I haven't been to the gym in like 2 weeks. I sometimes walk, I haven't done that too.

 

I guess the winter has made me less motivated and more lazy than I usually am. I also didn't go to the gym because of mental reasons and was difficult to workout for me but now that I feel better I can go back.

I enjoyed cycling every weekend. Feels good when the main road is still empty every sunday morning and is very fun and safe to cycle. I also prefer to cycle my way to stores if I'm too lazy to walk.

 

I also play pool (billiard) once a week with my college mates. I dunno if it considered as sport, but I enjoy it very much. Especially when I beat my friends in 8-ball and 9-ball game very often.

Being 6'5.5 I played Lock in Rugby Union, and I done quite a bit of unlicensed heavyweight boxing for a few years.

 

I also love tossing the pigskin around, I think if I was a Yank I would have been a QB I can sling it! :colgate:

I'm a Track & Field athlete (running events) but nowhere near elite. But it's fun to train and improve one's personal bests. My best distance is 800 meters. I haven't run under two minutes yet, but I hope I'll do it in the future. 

Not really any organised team sports, but I am a 4th Dan (Yondan) Karate instructor in the style of Goju-Ryu.

 

Training has been really hit and miss since COVID, and we have been locked down and closed, reduced to holding remote Zoom sessions, then back in the Dojo having to wear shoes and masks, then training non-contact only and outdoors last summer, then indoors again, then outdoors again. It has been really hard work. We are back to normal at the moment, but always expecting a change with the next UK restriction announcement.

 

I also do a lot of mountain biking if that counts.

I'm American, so I have no idea of any other sports that you international folk have available.

I like to play Basketball, American Football, and Track & Field. In T&F, I loved to do the Long Jump and the Triple Jump.

From what I hear in America, martial arts, such as mma, are very well developed. There is a very cool gym where the UFC stars and champions train. I also saw my first mixed martial arts tournament and decided that I would take up Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

Nothing now, but when I was younger I played basketball, indoor soccer and participated in Taekwondo.

I used to play quite alot of sports; 

 

 

I still swim occasionally. At one time I was training to be a life-guard and I still remember a lot of the skills I picked up. I do enjoy a dip in the cold Irish sea from time to time. I just don't get out as much as I should.

It was swimming when younger and tennis, that's it, was really good at it and reached the last "class" but has been a lot of years since I last went swimming.

I used to do different martial arts, but I picked boxing as I liked it more long time ago, I liked it as a hobby and hope to continue one day. Training was too difficult but once getting used to it and learning the different techniques/defense I liked it more.

I wanted to try small tournaments back then we had events hosting but never happened.

And last I always wanted to try rollerskating or ice-skating (ice more), yeh I think these count as a sport some way? I find it "beautiful"? I guess?

I still train by myself at times, even if it's just a bit of boxing or exercising.. But want to continue at the gym again one day.
