The Most Demanding Sports

[nieman]

Naw...being a pitcher raises baseball several slots, cause that ish is brutal

 

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Man all I know is in HS at football practice, the soccer team used to run around the football field. They were there running when we got to the practice field, and they were still running when we left. And they didn't even break out a ball yet.

playing 75-90 mins 1-3x a week depending on time of year, YEAR ROUND (weather x time)...yeah we know who wins this contest, keep your entertainment bias outta this

only thing that has a chance of comparing is nfl linemen, RBs, and LBs because of sheer velocity x proximity

 

[Piff Huxtable]

Triathlon should be number one

 

[///Vega+++]

You don't think sprinting is physically demanding?

they estimate it's less demanding than skateboarding which is ridiculous

 

[Absolut]

water polo should be number 2. try treading water for an extended period of time. then imagine doing that, while trying to score a goal and another dude hanging on and defending you

 

[Rick Roller 10]

If anyone here ever tried open water swimming, they would understand why it should be higher on the list.

 

[Rick Roller 10]

Where the fukk is roller hockey?

baseball is too low...even if you think the sport is somewhat easy, the 162 game schedule (not including playoffs) in the middle of the summer is a lot of wear and tear

I use to be jealous of those dudes just jogging around when I was at football practice.

definitely, especially sitting around in the dugout. it could get exhausting

 

[Taadow]

subs for the ignorance that is to follow

*ties shoes reeeeeeeeeeeeeal tight*


Some of those aren't even "sports", though...

*runs outta thread*

 

[Brown Ant]

Terrible list.

Track and Field / Soccer / Basketball / Football / Boxing = Top 5 objectively.

 

[GzUp]

I played soccer for years and its not that hard, you get used to the running.

 

[Ronald McDonald]

It's the most taxing when you're trying to get someone off who's on top of you
