Probably making rude gestures at you. Rude, but not so rude as to impinge upon the CoC. —Alorael, who has been struck by certain ironies that shall remain nameless. His major expenditures of energy shall also remain nameless, although "victims" and "retrieval" figure prominently. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

I play high-level competitive ultimate frisbee, soccer, and volleyball, and I run track as well. My distances are the 400m and 800m, although I have a pretty good 200m time too. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

I used to play American Football, during which time I lifted weights, ran, and otherwise performed strenuous physical activities. Of course, that was almost a year ago, and I've now gotten to the point where I'm struggling to eke out a mile and a half a day to get my physique under control. C'est la vie, how the mighty have fallen, and so on, and so forth. Posts: 293 | Registered: Saturday, May 29 2004 07:00 |

I throw a shotput. That's right. A big metal ball. 12 pounds, three times. But you wouldn't believe the training that we do just to gain half a foot. I also used to do Karate, but gave it up. Then again, it seems to have helped my twitch speeds and pivoting skills for shotput. So I'm overall happy I took it up, even though I quit. -------------------- quote: Posts: 1115 | Registered: Sunday, May 15 2005 07:00 |

I'm at a low level of activity at the moment. I play soccer, but only in the fall. And I do a lot of hiking, but mostly in the summer. So at the moment, all I do is some walking. Dikiyoba. Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00 |

I run 2 km once a week. Takes me about 9 min, to finish. I run on a road so no easy track running. I play goal for soccer, by soccer I mean the real kind in a gym with walls and more contact. I also play goal in road hockey, and ice hockey. Oh and 100m I have a time of 12.50 seconds, I now it sounds lame compared to the record holders at 9 sec. >>>>>>>Let the parade of self-congratulation continue: -------------------- The Knight Between Posts.

I used to swim and play basketball. Now, I get barely any exercise, except for lots of walking.

I used to do Judo but gave it up when I realised that it wasn't doing me that much good. Then again in one year I put on 15kgs of muscle mass doing it. I really want to get into street fighting but unfortunitly it isn't all that easy to get into and the training is intense. And me being really lazy and intense training doesn't really seem that fun.

33 lbs. of muscle mass in one year from Judo? Sure... :rolleyes: Are you sure it wasn't also because you grew three inches as well, or some other life-developmental change was occurring? Thirty pounds is a lot of muscle mass to put on in one year. Posts: 2242 | Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00 |

I tend to just walk. Long walks around my town are rather enjoyable, and walks around my college campus are even better. That said, I have no bike right now (I had a rental for the last school year), but I used to bike... occasionally. I might take up running this summer, but St. Louis humidity tends to drain the life out of you pretty quickly.

ESPN showed his (Barry Bonds) first homerun (June 1986) when he hit # 714. He was a skinny kid whooping it up when he hit that ball. Now, 20 years later, he is still playing ball and still happy as a clam to be able to do it. He is playing hurt because it does hurt to play that many years in the same sport. Hell, it would hurt to be a carpenter for twenty years and that is just as physical. Whether or not he has taken steroids, hitting the ball that many times, that far, is a remarkable achievement. Having a career last as long as his, is a remarkable achievement. If there is an issue of children thinking that they can be better players if they take steroids, please persuade them otherwise. All it takes is practice. After all, I can pop it out of the park too, and I've never even trained, never mind taken the juice. -------------------- quote: Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

quote:Our Judo trainer dude (I never bothered to learn the names of anything the guy was telling me) was always pissed off at me because I failed to learn any Japanese words or anything and just gave English terms for everything. This meant that the guy was constantly giving me extra exercise as punishment so I was the fittest one at the club. It doesn't help that I was really scrawney and had no muscle when I started, so I was only 45kgs to begin with. Posts: 776 | Registered: Friday, July 4 2003 07:00 |

Hmm. I think maybe "growing up" had a bit more to do with the weight gain - I know precious few mature adult males under 100 lbs.! Posts: 2242 | Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00 |
