I like to play basketball a couple times a week with my son it's a good workout and great times with my 17 year old, it burns a ton of calories, breaks up the monotony of just running, plus smack talking back n forth makes us crack up . Btw we are awful basketball players and 5'10"

    Me too. It's actually been a great way to spend time with my son for the past couple of years. Unfortunately, I fear we're coming to the end of the road --- I'm not very good, and he's a freshman who plays for his high school team. I used to be able to get by when I was much taller (I'm 6'3") but he's now caught me in height and can jump way, way higher. Last couple of times we played, the score ended up like 20-2 or 3. It's too bad, because it was really fun.

    You're lucky that at 17 your son still wants to play with you.
