So I went ice skating yesterday and it has left me pretty sore today. I figured it was a good workout that you could do every once in a while to spice things up.

I also do futsal sometimes with friends and I'n considering swimming as well.

What things do you do that are physically demanding yet not necessarily a workout?

I also used to figure skate quite a lot when I was younger, I had a coach and did some light competition, but it was never super serious. Unfortunately that caps out in age pretty fast, so I am well past that these days.

I also did hapkido when I was younger, and I still do the hyungs on a regular basis. Probably that would just be considered a workout, but my main reason is just not to forget them.
