Sport Decisions

As humans we need at least 30 minutes of exercise each day. Exercising helps you to be happy because you release Endorphin (happy hormones.) Playing sports play a huge roll in your happiness, health and life span.

Here are a list of the top 5 sports to try. 

5. Basketball 

As a basketball player, you have to be extremely quick. There is a lot of running in this sport which is very healthy for your heart. There is both upper and lower body strength. 

4. Tennis 

Tennis is a good sport to get into because you don't need a team to play, just a friend. You use your arms to swing the racket and lots of quick foot movements. 

3. Cross County 

Cross county is also great because it involves a lot of endurance and stamina. You only need yourself and  a competitor to play. 

2. Soccer 

Personally, my favorite sport is soccer. You feel so open and free when you play. There is a lot of quickness and endurance in this spectacular sport! You can kick the ball around by yourself, or, you can get some friends together to play 5 on 5 or 6 on 6. 

1. Swimming

This sport you only need yourself and a pool. You are using almost every single muscle in your body. If you can choose between swimming or running, choose swimming because you are exercising your core, leg and arm muscles. 

There are of course many other sports to consider!
 

Remember: Always try out for school sports. Even if you don't want to because you many regret it later. For example, I was having second thoughts about trying out for my school basketball team. I tried out and it turns out it was a fantastic experience. Trust me and try out!
