Toughest, Most Physically Demanding Sport?

[Guest airmax]

for me its the nfl they only play from sept. up t january every year. mahirap itong sport na ito kasi laging itatackle dito ng kalaban mo na malalaki rin.

[thonetteski]

for me its basketball...

[dencio]

rugby ... american football (i.e. NFL) has pads and helmets - ang rugby wala! :goatee:

[riceb0i]

mma Pride FC with the soccer kicks & stomps to the head of a downed opponent.

[Palakol]

mixed martial arts.

[mnlbay45]

Go for a 2 mile swim, bike 110 miles, and that just to start a full matrathon.

Lets say for a moment we take away the preparation and training factor. This is also like saying suppose we get two exactly trained, built and whatnot (imagine clone-like) persons and each would take play a sport for the same amount of time. What could be the toughest sport there is?

 

With boxing, it depends on the opponent and what kind of boxer are you. Kung out fighter ka and a smart strategist it might be possible to take a minimal number of solid punches.

 

Rugby and American football. A linebacker's job is hell hard, stopping and tackling possibly bigger guys. A running back's job will quickly sap strength, add mo pa na hinahabol siya nga tacklers.

 

Sa non-contact naman, deep sea diving. This is trying to survive a totally foreign environment.

chess...

mahirap mag kundisyon dito... hehehe

 

 

seriously,

 

mukhang demanding physically mga martial arts type sports... every muscle, tendon and joint has to be in perfect shape... otherwise your head gets bashed in...

[yuuto]

well, UFC and MMA

also swimming.. mahirap din ung sport na ito ha.

 

i agree on you dude

 

in swimming! try to swim for 10 straight minutes parang nawala kinain mo kahit madami

 

MMA training- very tough training

[Larry]

IRONMAN TRIATHLON

 

2.84mi swim

 

and then

 

a 180mi. bike ride

 

and then

 

a 42k run

 

and you have to do these things one after the other.

 

for reference the distance from Villamor Airbase in pasay to subic is around 40k - 46k

 

i can probably train for one of these 3 but I won't be able to do the whole thing. I'd probably die during the swim.

 

on second thought, I can probably finish the ironman event if you give me like 2 weeks.

[Great One]

Boxing... Parang wala kang kalalagyan pag wala ka sa kondisyon at preparation...

[fatso8]

MMA training

[bitoygizmo]

FOR ME MULTIDAY na adventure race... wala ng hihirap pa...

[geneticfreak]

MMA Hands down.

 

Not only is it physically demanding but mentally as well. Imagine having to study Wrestling,BJJ,Boxing and Muay Thai all at the same time while preparing for match and trying to figure out which techniques to keep in your arsenal and which to discard.

 

Add to that the physical conditioning involved. This really is the sport to beat right now.
