Subject: RE: Favorite sport vs. Best sport Favourite sport generally is strongman, best is judo. As far as tris go, I'm brand new and haven't done a race yet. With training outside of gym and mat I'm also brand new other than interval running. So its hard to tell which I respond best to. I love swimming. Id say its my favourite. I'm rubbish and need a couple of lessons as I gasp too soon and need to control my breathing. But even when really going slowly I cover 25m in under 30 seconds every time I do one, but with only two recent swims under my belt I need practice in order to do it without a 60 second rest between! Lol. My first session was a disaster, second was far better after massive BT and YouTube study. I think ill pick it up quick enough, especially as I love it. Running is great, I'm can sprint etc but am not used to distance, I'm in week 2 and can cover 2 and half miles with a 10:40 mile/min, so am working up to 3 miles/5k before I start to think about longer distances and speed (though my joints are used to sprints ). Cycling - all I know is my full suspension mountain bike on my commute! All in good time. My endurance in my legs isn't bad so ill pick it up on my bike then borrow a hybrid for my first tri. If I like it in the event ill buy a roadbike then. So I don't really know. I'm the stage where I could find myself loving tris, or ending up preferring one of the disciplines on their own. I'm really excited about being a good swimmer and getting to venture outdoors. I'm also tempted to get back into sprinting. I guess its all towards the greater good of not being a slow bodybuilder anymore and learning to be fit again! |
