TheSupremeLeaderOfChaos 1,206 February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 You should probably swim Butterfly, it is my experience that females tend to be innately skilled in the butterfly stroke, so I think that it could suit you well Okay, cool! Thanks, friend! I've been working on it a lot, and I know I'm getting better; I can feel it! I really want to get the butterfly down, because it's been the most difficult for me since I've started. Thanks for the advice! Signature made by- Kyoshi Make sense? Oh, what fun is there in making sense? -Discord I'm So Excited! I'M SO EXCITED!

I really want to get the butterfly down, because it's been the most difficult for me since I've started. Thanks for the advice! Never an issue! I am actually a pre-Olympic swimmer who is more likely than not, going to be competing in 2016 in Swimming, so come talk to me any time you wish! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soundgarden 2,758 February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 Well I am actually an Olympic Athlete in pre-2016 training. I have been swimming for seven years and have set both state and national records in the United States in the 50, 100 fly and the 50 freestyle. Hoping to compete in the next Olympic games for my country! OH Hush Bassman, you are a pretty damn dedicated athlete as of late, considering the amount of work that you put in ;P Just keep grinding If you really have any actual Olympic aspirations, you need to start putting in hours on the track, the Olympic qualifiers are strict, tight margins that only the best can hit. What are you times? My times? They are beyond amazing. I ran the Gothenburg Marathon (21 km) in like 1 hour, although my friend and family said that they witnessed me fainting after 10 minutes because of exhaustion, but what do they know...

I have absolutely no idea whether or not that is a good time -_- I was actually referring to the swimmer girl for her times, something I understand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well stop it then! That's not very good for you at all >.< Start swimming, now. What is your excuse for not swimming?

It is literally the best thing on earth for you My excuse? It's boring and it have haunted me all my life. I remember when I was a kid and I had to take extra lessons in swimming just because "I didn't have the right techniques", while the rest who didn't even know how to swim got away.

That's hardly a good excuse, if you didn't have the right technique then you should have improved your technique ;P Get back in the pool and get in shape.

When I am unfairly treated, I tend to loose interest at the speed of light, explaining why I never bothered to improving them . Besides, I find a lot of other things in life a lot more fun. Having a short but a fun one is more important to me than a healthy, long and boring one Edited February 20, 2013 by Soundgarden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen 1,354 February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 My time for 1500m to date is 4 minutes and a half approx, and I train just about every day for about two hours, so I'd consider myself quite athletic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColtofPersonality 855 February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 Decent but not an athlete per say I use to play floor hockey all the time and was a good striker in foot ball..and if you count urban sports I was a pro at Nicky Nicky Nine Doors..basically knocking on your neighbours door then running away and seeing if they'll open the door..sometimes the door bell if it were a fancy house. Look in my eyes...what do you see? The ColtOf Personality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaramus 449 February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 I'd say I'm reasonably athletic, I do half an hour of exercising in the morning a day as well as an hour and half kickboxing sessions twice a week. While I'm not brilliant I do often compete in tournaments and fight shows, where even just 2 minute rounds take quite a lot out of you, so I'm quite happy I can manage those. I don't like going to the gym though, I really do find it boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingnut 6,989 February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 Let's just say I knew from an early age that I would not have a career in the Olympics or professional sports. I do belong to a gym at work, but I don't go as often as I should. The problem is a whole bunch of us go off duty at the same time and therefore the gym is very busy. I can swim pretty fast but I've never had access to a pool on an ongoing basis. That's honestly the only way to build endurance for extra laps. I once dated a woman who was stronger than I am. She could carry me like a child and said I was a lightweight, lol. Considering I weigh 175 pounds, that's not too shabby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nah 3,182 February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 I'm the laziest prick in existence Nah, I'm really out of shape, I'm underweight first off, and I'm really into sports too much. Maybe a game of Baseball here and there and a bit of swimming, but other than that, I just can't really do too much, I also have a very poor respiratory system and can't run for more than a minute without getting a headache or really bad chest pains, which eventually might lead to vomiting for me. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaky Novel 72 February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 (edited) Pfth, I'm not athletic at all... honestly, I don't even dare wondering about how slow I'll probrably run, since I don't take the bike to school anymore (Sweden ya know, snow and ice everywhere). I hate physical activity. I get anxious and feel like all eyes are on me... just wainting for me to fail at something. The only good thing with it is the relief when the class is finally over. I'm not strong, not fast, not flexible or anything. My strength is in my head, my brain. It's in the theoretical classes I shine... At sport, I suck and feel like a clumsy fat hunch.
