I was just wondering what kind of sports the HD community does in their spare time / to keep fit?

I do:

Fencing
Mountain Boarding
Snowboarding (will be starting soon hopefully)

I used to also do Golf for a while but ive pretty much given it up after a nasty accident i had back last September/October.

I find I do not have much time for sports around here. I don't mind a nice game of football or basketball here and there, but that is about it. Otherwise it is just a basic workout routine for me of weight lifting and running.

I got the left side of my face slashed by an iron. I now have a nice scar

There was blood but it only felt like a small knock so i thought that's what it was and i carried on playing because it would probably stop in a few mins. But the bleeding continued and got worse so i thought i had better take a look at it and that was when i got taken to hospital and got it glued together.

It was a nice clean cut but very deep. I have not really touched a club since.

I like to break out my skateboard in the summer and I will ride my bike instead of drive the car in the summer as well. They are building a new bmx track near my house so I might get back into that in the spring.

I need to get a new bike. I was planning on getting a BMX at one point but i never got round to it.

I don't go skateboarding, never quite got the hang of it. I can do mountain boarding though - its great fun i recommend it!

Nice to see someone actually cares about being fit in this chair-loving industry.

I have been in professional tennis since I was 6. I don't quite play as much today, nor do I compete as much, but I still practice 3-4 times a week, sometimes more. I do train with great players and evaluate my own level of tennis for about top 20 in Canada. I am also currently a hitting partner to a young 14-year old Russian girl who is top 30 in the world her age. Other than tennis, I train in the gym same 3-4 times a week. In the summertime I sometimes bike.

Its quite easy, actually. Just ignore work, don't make money and spend time playing tennis instead. Anyone can do it.

Now that's a laid-back attitude all right!

I work out (weight train) about 3-4 days a week (2-3 days a week through the fall and winter), play baseball, and street/ice hockey.
