Have you ever regretted not doing sports early on in high school?

I slightly regret not taking advantage of the High School Gym, but seeing as I am now making gains at 21 I'm pretty happy. It could always be worse, imagine if being that 40 year old who thinks they can still turn it around fully

What? High school is when you drop the team sports to concentrate on beer and girls. Then when you've had enough of that you start lifting.

No. I stopped playing soccer at 13 after having played club for 8 years because I was tired of getting up at 5am so my mum could drive me across the city to play

Yeah that was fucking gay. Wrestling practice was at fucking 5am in junior high.

Yeah my dad left at age 8 and parents weren't home. I was fucking really good at gow 1 and css though.

I tried out for soccer and I was 1 of the 3 people in the entire school to not make any of the teams. I also asked the coach why and he listed off multiple reasons why I failed. I also failed during scrimmage where I had a soccer ball deflect off my nuts to score on my own team.

I just regret being a fat fuck in high school.

i played most sports up until high school including soccer competitively. then everyone else went through puberty except me and the advantages my small frame gave me (speed and agility) were eliminated and i looked like a fucking retard with my emaciated midget frame against guys with beards

no, that's the past. we're on to the future and we must strive to be the best version of ourselves in the present

>be 9
>dad asks me if I want to play hockey (I had ice skating lessons)
>say no for some fucking reason
>dad feels the weight of thousands of dollars of equipment and lessons lift from his shoulders and never asks again
>be 11, move to a new place
>friends both play hockey
>think about how far ahead of me they are and that it's pointless to try now
>dont even talk to my parents about how much i want to play hockey but "cant"
>if I had just started then I could be playing beer league hockey
>27 years old
>still havent learned
this is the year. This is the year I buy equipment, learn to stop on skates, and start dominating manlets with my 6'2 frame.
word of advice, enroll your kids in sports or music or both. Theyll always wish they had learned

Go for it user

I played hockey all through growing up, and swam competitively as well, along with some other lame stuff like soccer.
I always knew my parents did a lot for me in terms of the financial and time aspect of putting me in sports, but holy shit am I ever thankful now.
One of the big reasons for breaking up with my gf of 5 years was that I want both of us to make enough money to be able to afford to put our kids in whatever sports they want to play, and put money away for school for them, but she wants to chase a bullshit PhD in a field where she'll be lucky to even get a job as a professor when she's done and doesn't want to put in any effort towards being a good parent cause she learned to be selfish from her shitty parents
she was also short and getting fat

i did. in highschool was on singles 3 varsity tennis freshman year. sadly girls don't give a shit about tennis and all it did was piss off guys who thought they were better than me (everyone on the team). it never did anything for me fitwise except improve my eye hand cordination i guess

I played baseball but i was bad because i wasn't very strong so couldn't hit the bar far.

I just wish i knew how to workout and diet in highschool like i do now.

Hockey is fun user, hope you have fun with it as well. I sorta feel like shit because I quit hockey when entering Junior High because I never thought I was good at it compared to the other dudes on my team (I had like 2-3 goals a season and around 30-40 assists). I would probably be way better off if I stuck with hockey and lifting now that I think about it.

Same user. Always responded to people asking me if I play basketball by saying I'm too uncoordinated. Started playing recently as a 21 year old and really fucking love it

lucky for you, you can jump back into it if you can afford it. being an athlete is as much being strong as it is being skilled

I went to a small, cliquey private school. I regret not playing sports, but I don't regret not being in the sport team clique. Maybe if I went to large public school with more variety of sports I would have joined a team.

I never liked sports so no. I do regret not hopping on weight training though.

Based.

I did wrestling for a year and somehow managed to make it through the conditioning and pre season training despite being only 10 out of like 50 people who didn't leave halfway in.

Never got the chance to even compete against other schools cause I had to move but jesus I loved it so much. Now I wish I could find a good place to learn again but no MMA gyms teach it besides judo or BJJ and clubs don't like noobs.

Nope.
>t. 95 kilo untermensch

You must not be American.

Playing high school sports was the single best way to make friends and meet girls. You automatically gained social status by playing on a team.

cross country

anything but cross country

im still a novice with only a season's worth of experience. but if i were you, i wouldnt hesitate and waste my time but just try either Judo or BJJ. I'm sure theyre just as dope

No, I skateboarded and smoked weed instead, and I started lifting in senior year. I doubt I missed anything important by not playing sports in grade 10.

However; I kind of want to join a sports team now just to make frens and maybe succ a dick. Anyone play in a beer league or whatever the fuck they call it?

>be american
>sort of tall and big for may age
>get put in football (american)
>get scrambled egg brain
>currently in my fifth year at college (state school, no sports scholarship as I quit during high school)
>need at least another year to get a degree
>at least parents are ok with it as it is cheap, and they feel responsible for pushing me into concussion land
accounting is hard when you can't concentrate on numerical things

forced myself to play sports in elementary-middle because my friends did and i fuckign hated it

i wrestled all four years and i have nothing but fond memories and an excellent work ethic because of it
i ran track and cross country my senior year but regret not also doing them every year
can't help but feel that i lost out on nearly two thirds of the fun i could have had in school

Every fucking day

>on golf team
>fairly good
>likely get small scholarship to college

>six years later I’m out
>have been at community college now for 2 years
>about to transfer to a real university
>still another 2-3 years to go
>I’ll be 32 when I graduate
>the good jobs in my field require a masters
>another two years and I’ll be employable
yeah, I regret not doing sports in high school. my old team mates have been working since they graduated college at 22. I basically could have saved myself a decade by continuing to play.

High school sports can be great but my experience with it was shit. The only good coach at my school was the weight training coach and the wrestling coach. Everyone else was a burnout drunk boomer with too much pride and no brains. My football coach advised several students to play while severely injured and got all pissed when he didn’t get his way. My track coach thought it was a good idea to try and brainwash

*brainwash kids with his racist bullshit to try and get them more motivated.

>be american
>may age

Start studying and stop lying, you suck at it.
