    would you consider yourself athletic? what sports have you done?

     
    Probably more athletic than the average person, not to sound cocky or anything. Though I'm more like jack of all trades, master of none, except for badminton, a sport which I've played for 7 years now, but I was always a quick learner during physical education in high school. Adept at majority of them with the exception of baseball...For some odd reason, I could never get the hang of timing the swing of the bat with the ball.

    Also used to take tennis lessons when I was younger, but an accident happened that landed me in the hospital stopped me from pursuing it any further. I still play it once in a while during the summer with friends.
     
    I used to play tennis for three years in high school and it can be demanding at times. I wasn't that great but I improved quite a bit and it was the sport that I felt more comfortable playing in. Other sports like basketball and volleyball have much taller players, so I have a disadvantage in height alone.
     
    I do Crossfit, enjoy playing Table Tennis and am looking to find a Fencing club again. You could say I'm fit. I wouldn't say I'm amazing at anything though, I'm just starting to get fitter.
     
    i'm not too athletic anymore. :I; i'm working towards being fit again, if that counts!

    but i was a competitive track and cross country runner when i was 8 up until about the age of 13. i will be fine during the zombie apocalypse. >:)

    What a perfect plan. How has nobody thought of this in any zombie survival film ever? I now question why I am bothering to keep fit haha.

    It'd make for an uninteresting zombie flick and nobody would pay to watch that, haha. But no, you should keep fit and healthy just in case those treadmills are defective c:

     
    I'm pretty agile I guess? I played a lot of sports growing up, hockey, soccer, baseball, all which required a fair amount of agility. I just wasn't good at any of the other aspects of the games lol.
     
    I used to be more athletic than the average joe shmo, but I still wasn't superstar material or anything. I was the brick wall in basketball, I was in marching band for 4 years, I played football for 10 years, I did shotput and discus for track and field 2 years and then I was on the weightlifting team for about 3 months before the coach got pissed at me for continuously skipping leg days. Upper body workouts are just so much more rewarding than lower body workouts. You tell someone you finally hit 300 on bench and you get some high fives and a slap on the back. Tell someone you hit 500 on squat and everyone just says "join the club".
     
    I wouldn't consider myself extremely athletic but I do enjoy playing sports. I play tennis regularly as part of my uni's tennis club and I'm planning to compete in a 5k run around my city in May some time. I'm also planning to hit the gym. Well, not the real gym, but work out from home. I'd say I'm not super athletic but I am physically active.
     
    FUCK NO.

    I can't even properly catch a ball... let alone even throw one. That should tell you something right there. I'd much rather just watch sports and pretend I understand what the hell is going on then even try to play them.
     
    I've always considered myself as having the mind of a great athlete, but having the body of a... not-great athlete. If I can control the pace of what I'm playing though, I've always done really well, which is why even though I prefer playing sports like hockey and football, I took a real shining to baseball when I was younger.

    In by best year, not only did I make it on our city's all-star team as a pitcher (which meant I was in the top 5 out of 350+ kids), but I did it while being a year younger than everyone. Right before the next season though, I ended up pinching a few nerves in my shoulder during a practice, and had to stop playing. It always stung knowing what could have been, especially when I saw that one of the kids I was on that same all-star team with ended up getting drafted into the MLB.
     
    I used to dunk in high school before I blew out my knee. Basketball and knees don't really jive I'llhaveyouknow
