    Martial arts, kickboxing, horseback riding...not sure if you'd consider all those as sports but they'll definately give you a workout. Have fun!

    only way to get good at anything is to play... practice makes perfect they say... so with that said what sports do you like?

    Ireland? PLAY RUGBY
  • Rowing!! It's great for every muscle group of the body, you can do it at any age, any season, and it's low impact on your joints! =)

    Running!

    Get some good shoes!

    Start out with 1 mile and keep doing it until you can complete it w/o stopping. Every Saturday, add 1/2 of a mile. Eventually, you can do 8 mile runs 3 or 4 times a week :)

  • You're in Scotland so why not use all that fantastic open space you have and get climbing those hills!! You have no idea how much I envy you x

    I tried indoor rock climbing a few weeks ago and had never done it before. I caught on pretty quickly. I am terrified of heights, but it was so much fun regardless. Great workout too.
