Is this a good idea,... both very good for ones health (hehe), but not very conclusive to each other, I can't choose what one to be involved in more it is hard...
Why not both? I suppose if your are earning your living as a bassist with your hands then you have to weigh the risk of injury with your ability to earn a living. That said you can injure yourself more falling down the stairs.
Rugby is a great sport and I think has an unfair reputation as a violent sport. I played as a teenager in Scotland and still love the game.
In terms of risk, I used to race 100MPH+ shifter karts. I have never felt so alive when the adrenalin pumps in that sport. Now I ride mountain bikes on a regular basis and love the buzz of climbing a hill or getting through a technical trail plus I get fitter in the process.
I think being fitter makes me a better person and maybe even a better player. I also need the adrenalin kick regularly.
Sounds like a good way to put yourself out of the game for a little while. I guess I'm not one to talk I skateboard and constantly jeopardize the saftey of my hands.
Yeah I was just wondering what other people thought because i just got selected to play at a state level, i have not had any problems at club but at practice a state a kid had his nose and right ring finger broken so i just though i might as well get a second though on this thanks muchly
