I wanted to know what you guys think i should try as a sport , Since i havent Tryed any sports in the base i litteraly have no background knowledge on stuff like this
.... A good Description of my Physical Statue : Skinny , Long arms , Long legs , i dont float in Pools .... I have not bein able to decide since i'm totally new to try out for a competitive sport and perhaps maybe unable to do so since i don't go outside much (Why do i think im here Lol) im not in any type of Sports Ready condition... Experience : 1.my Mom says i have unusual Strength Which is very weird for someone who lacks the going outside and belive me i know >_> (average) 2.I can Also Run very well But lack the endurance so Thats a Issue with basket ball , 3. I took wrestling Courses at my local YMCA for a bit (about 2 weeks lost my first 2 fights so going into wresting may be demoralizing 4. i took swimming courses multiple times but i Just cant float ... (Sink like a Rock D:!) Bad Quality's : 1 . I hate being competitive period , Losing is something (in real life) that I'd hate to happen, however if i don't get competitive I've all ready lost ... D:! i want you guys to take this seriously , im discussing this with freinds and Family as well , but the internet can sometimes be useful so ima post this issue here as well |

1,2, and 4 explain me as well lol i sit on the comp all day yet i can lift heavy things most my friends and family cannot its weird. anyways as for choosing a sport ide go swimming i sunk like a rock as well but swimming rly is a stress reliever and helps train all muscles in the body not just one section such as push ups only helping your arms, ect. i used to be on a swim team but wasnt very good ended up not going anymore but i still like to swim no matter how good i am or not the only prob is is that i hate chlorine filled water so it limits me. plus you dont get all sweaty and much more relaxing at the end of the day. gl on what ever u choose

Before getting yourself into some sort of team with obligations and stuff, I suggest you try out all these sports in private. Go play basketball/football (cos that's what it's called) with a bunch of mates, wrestle with them, go running, go swimming, just try to get an idea of what it's like before joining an actual team where you might end up realising that you picked the wrong sport.

Well, if you haven't shown any emotion towards these sports, simply don't do sports at all. Sportsmen don't live longer, they just die healthier.

Crikey, why does everything have to be competitive in Eagleland?
Just take a buddy to the court and play tennis for fun. And if the school won't let you, improvise. |

Try out track and field. Sounds like you'd be great for sprinting events. Shot put would be good for you and your strength. Or one of the jumping events.

I played basketball in HS, maybe you should try it out. Also, does your school have intramural league sports? You could try those out if you don't want to get into the competitive leagues yet.
