Non fitness related hobbies/interests?

KingHurlbutt

Obviously we all like fitness, or at least have fitness related goals. But sometimes it makes it easier if we connect on more than one level. So let’s talk about hobbies besides fitness related ones...

I am really into photo/video, love dogs and play guitar to name a few.

What are some of your non fitness related interests?

Wow parrots would be an interesting pet! I love travel also.

I like to write letters to my favorite sitcoms that don't have laugh tracks and try to get them to use laugh tracks. For example, The Simpsons.

I do this with the Office too. I'm hoping they add them to the DVD and re-runs. I even did my own episode once where I dubbed in laugh tracks to see what it would be like.

My interests are all over the place. I’m a crazy soccer fan, enjoy photography and keep thinking I need to devote some time to improving my skills there, love to travel (mainly road trips because my budget is much poorer than my wanderlust), and I also knit, enjoy Scandinavian film, and am a bit of a genealogy nerd.

Acoustic or electric? Do you sing also?

What a variety! Genealogy fascinates me!

I’m creative I’m passionate about all aspects of art design and making things.
I love music , I listen and sing along but I’m often told to shut up that I can’t sing haha and love dancing, clubbing .
I used to play lots of instruments but only have guitars in the house now, I used to sketch paint design and make costumes wedding dresses.
Love travelling too , used to be a dare devil and adrenaline junky but I’ve been reigned in on that too.

Seismology. Geology. I study earthquakes, geysers, thermal areas.

Camping...and pretty much anything that gets me outdoors...a lot of which would fall under fitness I suppose. I just like being outside and doing stuff.

xFunctionalStrengthx

Archery (3D, target, bowhunting. I shoot both compound and recurve/longbow.)
Bicycling (Road, MTB)
Downhill skiing
Trap/skeet (along with other firearms and hunting)
Motorcycles (Dirtbike/Motocross, SuperMoto currently. Used to do trackdays on sportbikes)
Fishing (though, not as much as used to)



I used to be big into computers/games as hobbies. But, prefer to do things away from computer/TV since I work on a computer all day.

I enjoy knitting, spinning, reading, researching genealogy, and spending too much $ on records.

I recently started building bird houses with old puzzle pieces. I like to think outside the box on recycle, reuse, and reduce.

caco_ethes

Poetry, belly dancing, long walks off short piers..

vinovinovino

Art, art history, fashion, gastronomy, music (I play classical piano), meditation, traveling, and my mom’s stubborn elitist dog who would only do tricks for organic peanut butter (she spoils him hard). He’s very cute though.

KosmosKitten

So this is a long list:

Hiking
Camping (you know.. in actual tents and with no A/C)
Painting
Drawing
Knitting
Crochet
Baking
Magic: the Gathering
Comics
Anime
Animation (in general)
Video Games (specifically RPGs)
Reading
Singing
Collecting Vinyls
Entomology (study of insects and arachnids)

I'm sure there's more, but those are the main ones, I think.

Oh honey, huge gulps.

TheRoadDog

I'm a Biker, so there's that.



I love to cook.



Go to a lot of concerts. Love live music. In fact, my wife and I have tickets to 5 Concerts between now and September.

I like to hike. Sounds like it is fitness related, but it's not. I usually grab a couple cigars each evening and head out for a 6 mile hike. Not for fitness' sake. For sanity's sake. Like hitting the reset button after a long day.

Between May and October, I usually spend a long time working in the lawn and garden.
