[Hippolyta]

Jujitsu, horse riding, and a bit of squash.

[Falcore]

Just out of interest, how the heck can some of you folks fit in the multiple sports. Do you not have jobs or study?

I've had to give up all my current MA training (judo) for my rugby life, simply cos there is no time - moving to the UK with a fairly singular goal of playing professionally there, so all other things take a back seat - I run and lift weights, but all that is just part of the rugby in my eyes. Anyway, come september I'll find out it it's been enough...

[Su lin]

Good luck with it Falcore!

It's pretty easy to fit everything in. Work 9-5 Mon-Fri- MA training 3-5 times a week(3 officially but we do extra sessions) ,cycling or running in the evening for 1-2 nights (when not training in kf) then cycling at weekend or running. It depends how much time you spend doing stuff that you dont need to do or just "wasting" time.It's much harder in the winter,getting home in the dark from work then dragging yourself out in the dark.Much easier doing stuff in the evening when its light and warm. :)

[Cait]

falcore -
its all about priorities. the stuff i play is just played for fun, i don't take it that seriously anymore - its downtime. and a lot of us don't play them all at the same time - seasons, m'boy, all about seasons

[ap Oweyn]

At the moment, just racquetball (assuming we're not counting martial arts as a sport).

[inosanto1]

MA JKD, kali escrima grappling and thats about it just do as much conditioning as possible in spare time rope work walking cycling and some light weights :D

[flaming]

ping pong
breakdancing

[AllieB]

lax, basketball and tennis(terrible at soccer) Shh dont tell my teacher

[Myst Kitty]

My favorite sport besides martial arts is dancing. And don't say its not a sport! When I sweat more after doing a routine in dance than in MA, that's saying something! Its fun to compete with other dancers, too:)

[Rin]

Basketball, it's pretty convieniant when i'm training for taekwondo too since working your fast-twitch muscles is essential in both. So plyos and jump roping and a variety of other exercises help with both.

[Taekwondomaster]

TKD,swimming,bike and tennis and running

[MingTheMerciles]

Marital Art - Wushu/San Shou , JKD , JJ/Arnis , Nito Kendo , Iaido , German Longsword . Wanna try out for European Pollaxe.

Sports - Body Buidling , Modern Recurve Archery , Horseback Archery with Chinese Horsebow ( well , for most part on foot , only get the chance to shoot from Horseback in Hong Kong and Iowa ) and wanna try out Kyudo and Snow Boarding .

[Anth]

I'm starting to play a bit of rugby now at Uni (not in a team, mainly just kick/pass-arounds). I cycle quite a bit when I'm at home and might get more into that in September. When I get time and have transport I get some freshwater fishing done.

Not enough sport, I know but it should be on the up in the summer :)

[alonso14]

Football, Rugby, Boxing, Tennis & I like to go ice-skating at christmas in Dublin

[neryo_tkd]

i like sports in general, but my friends and i often play basketball, pool and we go bowling sometimes. in summer we go rafting and canoeing and when we have time we play tennis as well. i love sky diving but i tried it abroad, here can't do it.

[Pacificshore]

i love sky diving but i tried it abroad, here can't do it.
alternate!! base jumping :D

[PhoenixMateria]

Badminton.

Serious players will realize the level it can be played at, as well as the necessity for deception, tactics, reflexes, coordination, explosive power, endurance, etc.

For those who don't, play a pro and try to return that 180 mpH smash (higher still in doubles). :p

[alonso14]

i also like bowling

[neryo_tkd]

yeah, bowling can be fun. i was surprised

[Mandras]

yeah, bowling can be fun. i was surprised
You were surprised that you enjoyed bowling?
As for me, I play soccer and a bit of gaelic football and hurling when I can. :)

[cheesypeas]

Errr..what is hurling.....in Cardiff its the sport of throwing up??? :Alien:

[CKava]

In Ireland its a traditional gaelic sport using flat sticks sort of shaped like curved axes called hurls, a leather ball and two 'rugby style' goals.

Lookey...

[cheesypeas]

Thanks CK! :D :love:

[Terao]

Does flirting count as a sport? lol

if i had to say I ust to do Archery if that counts

but i do enjoy long distance running
and Hockey

[SteelyPhil]

Ving Tsun, some Toshindo, a lot of reading, and do some inter-martial art's sparring in school every so often. I swim whenever i feel really unfit, and am trying to get my Cardio-vascular (spelt wrong probably) fitness up, if anybody has tips on that.

[TKDMORGANVILLE]

Personally if you want to get your cardio up jogging to me is the best way and not short distance ...well start out short and build yourself up. That long distance jogging will help build strong stamina for your body and get your heart pumping. I get up at about 6am monday - sat and jog 2-3 miles...depends on the weather usually.

Also when considering the physical fitness aspect of cardio you need decide if you are going for strong short term stamina or long term stamina. Personally most arts require long term, but thats up to you.

[Dreadgerbil]

I'm still finding a martial arts class that's right for me.
The other sports I enjoy are Rugby and Shinty. I used to play sketer-hockey when I was younger, but it got far too expensive.

[Kenpo_Iz_Active]

one of my favorite sports i play is kickin' ass (LOL)... But seriously, other than practicing Kenpo, i play soccer and football (american) a bit.

[Chimpcheng]

In my university days we used to play ultimate frisbee on the grass bit just outside the university library.

We were asked not to play during revision week as we were a distraction. :D

[Linguo]

does sucking at Orienteering count as a sport?

[Shadow_of_Evil]

Apart from the obvious Martial Arts I'm also into cross country running and climbing.
I'm also training up for next season's Rugby.

[Rhea]

Cycling, swimming, and martial arts.
Also into sailing, surfing and windsurfing.

Enjoy football, rugby and basketball.

[smiff]

HAY i do, judo, boxing, rugby, swimming, x-country, badminton, climbing, done a bit of caving, Fishing ( it is a sport ), diving and football.
