Sports are for physical fitness.
Physical fitness is for a long, high-quality life. Don't rely on anything else. I've seen too much of it. In my opinion, if you get in and compete and avoid any enhancement agents or drugs, you'll have a better-quality life, and that's what it's all about. Please include your age and daytime phone number.
