Playing any sport well requires coordination/determination.Talent doesn't hurt. Did you ever play a sport where you SHINED? Which/when?

Since I have ZERO athletic ability R "BETTER THAN AVERAGE" sounds like shining to me. Did you ever do it professionally? I think it's a tough way to earn a living unless no one lays a glove you! Thank you for your reply!  How long did you box? I expect training is very good exercise. I don't know if you saw that film with Clint Eastwood years ago where he trained a female to box professionally. It was a very good movie. With a very sad ending. :(

Strictly amateur. I boxed flyweight for a few years. At that weight, it's more about speed than power.

Thank you for your reply R and Happy Thursday. Boxers probably have to be in as good or great shape as any athlete. I wonder which sport requires being in the "best" shape? I guess I'll ask! :)
