   Not competitively, just for fun and fitness.

6. Disc golf

7. Swimming

8. Iaidō

9. Snowboard, mountainbike and disc golf.

10. Been into martial arts, nowadays just gym and running or cycling.

11. Cycling and skiing.

12. Ice hockey, cycling.

13. Cricket mostly. Throw in some road cycling.

14. Tennis, skiing, soccer, running, sometimes golf (if I’m feeling self destructive)

15. E sports (which isn’t an actual sport)

    I really need to do a real sport for excerise

16. I bicycle and swim daily. My brother and I have a friendly competition, also my wife helps me to stay motivated. One of the main things I do is I compete in Aqua-Bike meets (mile swim & 25 mile bike race) so I try to stay in the mindset of being in training. This keeps me on the path when I’d rather just sit home and watch TV.

17. None. Occasional weight lifting, I suppose? I work all day and have kids. My sport: get food in the little buggers, fix my daughter’s hair (she won’t budge otherwise) and get to the ~~torture~~ drive line to drop them off at school on time.

18. I lift stuff and run pretty often, guess I also ski when I can

19. Whitewater kayaking it’s the best sport for building mental toughness

20. Couch potatoing,

21. Kickboxing right now, when I start getting more in shape I’m going back to bjj.

22. Can masturbation be considered one? No? Then chess.

23. Athletics!

24. Soccer, golf. The former has been a huge part of my life/my family’s since i was 7, i played in college but now only play occasionally/when i can. I played golf a little as a kid when my grandparents introduced me to it, but it became a bigger hobby of mine when friends and I needed something to do/ a way to get outside during lockdowns and it was the only option

25. Weightlifting. I’ve just signed up for a local competition after years not having the time to compete.

    As regards motivation, it’s intrinsic for me. I just want to and I enjoy it. I don’t think I’ve ever trained reluctantly. Heavy lifting days (i.e. a max out on a snatch or clean/jerk) can be anxious in the run up, but that’s not reluctance.

26. I love and hate golf as I love and hate myself.

27. BJJ

28. I was never in to sports growing up. At 34 I decided I needed to do something, so I tried Judo. 8 years later I am still in to it. It’s fun, I like the camaraderie and the belt ranking system gives me motivation. My dojo is fairly recreational so no one is super hardcore looking to smash you. That suits me. I would not like a competition focused dojo.

29. Amateur bodybuilding, a little golf, and recently picked up pickleball with my wife.
