Do you consider yourself an athlete?

[QUOTE="TheMightyHoov"]

[QUOTE="jstamm33"] do you wrestle? what weight class? I've wrestled 103, 112, 119, and 125's..varsity both years :Pjstamm33

I dont wrestle but I weigh 130 if that helps :P

Im mostly a runner along with a baseball player. Shortstop ftw.

I always wanted to pitch but I couldnt because my throwing arm cant handle the stress and could break again :(

[QUOTE="jstamm33"] ahhh i see, I wish I would of stuck with baseball I was throwing 70mph before my freshman year of hs. I was a pitcher (closer) and catcher mostly (I remember throwing guys out, that we're trying to steal 2nd..from my kneeess yeeee) Allstars every year too hahahajstamm33

I pegged a runner once when I threw the ball to third. Hit him right in the family jewels :P

Lets just say he wont try and steal third on me ever again :x

I guess. I would consider myself more so coordinated and fast than just a pure athlete. I was captain of my basketball team in high school and I'm still pretty good though I don't play nearly as often anymore.

The last event I participated in was a 15k race (a little over 9 miles) a few months ago. I am by no means a runner so I was just seeing if I was able to finish the race without stopping to walk, which I was able to do. Here is a pretty sweet video of the course during the actual race.

yes, i am an athlete. i don't currently play any organized sports, but i was a beast at baseball, and i wasn't that bad at basketball either. if there were a baseball recreational league for college-age kids near me, i would join it, but alas, i don't know of any here. however, i still consider myself an athlete. i'm always willing to play a sport if someone asks me if i want to play. would prefer team sports, and ones like basketball or football, none of that weird crap that isn't played in america :P

I'm athletic, but I don't really play sports. Unless you consider fencing or paintball a sport.

yes

just dont ask me to run anywhere

TheMightyHoov

Wanna run 4 miles tomorrow with me? :|

no, I have to walk my dog

Yeah, I would say so. I played football all 4 years of high school, and now at college, I plan on just playing sports recreationally. I am also picking up on lifting again, but now I am switching to just staying in shape and fit (Or who knows, I might get into serious lifting again?). I love playing sports, and I will definitely continue playing them.

I run a 4.5 in a forty yard dash so yes I do consider myself an athlete.:)

I ran a 4.8, but to be fair, I had digestive problems that left me with stomach problems and anxiety. Imagine your stomach being bloated 24/7 and upto the point where it feels like it's going to explode for about 2 months.

Rough times man :(

Nice man thats pretty crazy for being 280. I need to do some sprints to improve.

ya crazy

respecting sports and playing them are two different things... one makes you an athlete and the other doesnt

I used to be.

But then I becamse goalkeeper in a soccer team that's coming first so I just stand there and look pretty, thus losing fitness and gaining weight :D

I haven't been very active lately, but I'm a very good natural athlete. I used to play basketball for at least a couple hours a day, 5-6 days a week. I have a good vertical leap, am pretty strong for my size (6'1" 200 lbs), and am a very fast runner when I'm in shape. Yeah, I'm an athlete when I want to be.
