Not Sport Activities
Not Sport Activities That Are Considered Easier
I was inspired by the Pet Peeves thread to make this. There are a lot of people who do activities that aren't sports, like dance or chorus. This is partially a rant thread and partially a gathering thread. Who else gets annoyed when people say that your activity isn't as important as sports, or it isn't as draining, or it doesn't require as much devotion, or that it isn't as hard? This is a place to get annoyed about that!
I am an Irish step dancer. So far, I only know of one other CBer that Irish dances (Killim). Is there anyone else?

Planks are the worst. XD And push ups. My teacher made me do fifteen push ups in class a few days ago, and boy were my arms sore the next couple days!
I have a friend who's also the only one in her class that can't do a split, and when we were in a class together, we used to joke about how horrible they were. XD

See, that would never happen at our school. xD Our teacher makes us do planks sometimes, but we're all REEEEEEEALLY competitive, so we all try and stay up as long as possible. No one usually makes it past 1 minute anyway. xD Although I did do a plank competition against my friend.once...
I got 5 minutes.
She got 6. xD I was so annoyed. *shrug* Whatevs. xD

At my dance studio, we have workout after classes that include push-ups, pull-ups, stretching your points, burpees, twists, wall sits, all that. We usually do splits at the beginning of class and if we start in hard shoe we also do toe exercises.
Its really fun though!

I don't dance, but I do marching band. It is so draining, stressful, time-consuming, and a heck of a lot of hard work, but being in band is what I love! <3
