have a go mate, I'm sure you'll find a club in your area. you get to meet some really sound people too, and cos you're training and sparring with them, you get a good feeling of comaraderie.

I tried it and was hooked. Have never injured myself (touch wood) apart from a few strained ligaments and muscles.

I would love to do something like that. Just really challenge myself physically, mentally and maybe learn something in the process.

Yeah, gung fu/kung fu is great. It takes a long time to learn though. I spent about 2 years on it including a week long intensive course on the isle of wight. It was one of the most enjoyable weeks of my life, although absolutely exhausting. Getting up at 8 and training very hard all day til 5. then go out on the pi55, although the isle of wight is somewhat lacking in the decent pubs area

Yeah, never had a go at basketball really, probably as I don't know anyone who plays it.

I have always wanted to give Gung Fu a go, have you tried that?

I like jiujitsu, its probably the most practical as far as defending yourself on the street is concerned, and the time it takes to learn effective moves is probably far less than other martial arts.

I've done others though in the past and enjoyed them as well, most notably Kung Fu.

Its the only real hobby I have aside from my games, DVDs, and of course coming on here.

I've always fancied having a go at something mad like parachuting though, as a few of my friends have had a go. Dunno, I have a lot of spare time and never seem to do anything constructive with it

Hmm, tried football last summer. Half an hour into my first game I dislocated my shoulder and missed all but the last 2 games of the uni basketball season.

Don't think I'll bother with it this time :^)

Extreme sunbathing (like extreme ironing), followed by swimming?
