Toughest, Most Physically Demanding Sport?


Recommended Posts

Which sport is the most physically demanding in your opinion?

 

Something that absolutely would k*ll lesser men, and would require athletes at an elite athletic level.

 

My votes would be

 

Rugby

 

-80 minutes non-stop action

-requires numerous athletic skills/traits, cardio, strength, speed, hand-eye coordination

-requires that players take monster hits with very little protective gear

 

Gymnastics

-requires the most athleticism

-very physically demanding

-only people at an extreme level of athleticism can compete.

 

Mixed Martial Arts (UFC Style fighting)

-requires elite level fitness (strength, speed, endurance)

-requires multiple skills (boxing, kickboxing, wrestling/grappling)

-insane amounts of cardio

 

what do YOU think is the toughest sport?

Tour de France.

 

Pag sinabi ko kasi Cycling eh hindi ganun kahirap yung dating. Kasi may Cycling competition na hindi gaano kahirap.

 

Pero pag Tour de France ito ang mahirap talaga sa mga nakita ko competition.

Though F1 is hard, its more demanding on the mental aspect.

 

not true

 

F1 athletes require athletes in top physical shape.

 

they do weight training, and cardio just to keep fit

 

when was the last time you saw an overweight F1 driver?

 

sa x games kahit kumpleto ka ng safety gear mababalian ka pa rin ng buto,

 

x games is an event, which sport of the x games are talking about?

 

personally I'd pick the Decathlon over the triathlon. and rugby over NFL

 

NFL although it's very physical has action only for less than 3 minutes every sequence, then you rest for a minute then go at it again. When the ball switches sides you (depending on what you specialize in) get to sit down.

 

Rugby is non-stop

 

I'd even say that hockey is tougher than the NFL. One of the fastest sports on earth, played on an artificial surface, hits galore, trying to follow a hard rubber object flying around at 400km/h, plus you get to fight occassionally.

rugby and nfl din.

 

have you seen those nfl guys after they retire? marami silang nirereklamong nararamdaman sa katawan. puro kawawa. pero wala silang pangpagamot kasi around $100-$500 lang ang pension nila dahil saglit nga lang ang career. you dont see basketball players, or baseball players, or even hockey players take that kind of punishment after they retire.
