I'm getting /fit/. Going to run a 5k this summer. After that, I don't really have any goals. Without another goal, I know I'll lose my motivation to stay healthy and end up a couch potato again.

At the same time, I'm not all that interested in progressing until I can run a marathon. So I'm looking to /asp/ for some sports I may not have thought of, where I can both have fun and set clear goals that require me to remain healthy (and ideally become more so).

Fapping is great excercise and feels good too

OP here. It exercises a few muscles in your forearm and hand, and that's it. It gets your heart rate up a bit, but it's not up the whole time so it's not even good as cardio.

When Dr. Kano systemized judo in 1882, he was convinced he had created a physical education curriculum that lead to balanced development of the body like gymnastics, but only trained useful movements and was interesting like a sport. Schools with a sport judo mindset seem to be more common than schools with this traditional judo mindset, but it's still definitely worth it. The Judo General thread is at >>1065423.

We also have boxing (>>1093884), muay thai (>>964423), and a number of other worthwhile martial arts like Olympic wrestling and well-placed pipebombs.

>>>/fit/17018018 has some good stuff for eating right and picking things up and putting them back down again.

If you don't want to fight and just want to be /fit/ without actually lifting weights for some reason, try a bodyweight exercise progression (>>1083806). You can apply similar goals to a practical discipline and train parkour (>>1071856), which is pretty much a martial art for gymnasts, runners, and Frenchmen.

Congrats on turning your life around. Welcome to the board, Anon, now get out and train.

Yeah, I've read the /fit/ sticky. Judo sounds possibly pretty cool. I like boxing from a standpoint of watching it, but I think I might go for MT or kickboxing if I decide to try a striking art.
