i drink and eat crap but do other sports to even it out but paintball can be nakering so if we're all playing regularly, we should be getting the exercise we need.

for those of you who don't think you need to be fit and healthy you have to ask yourself one question.....

at what level do you want to get to in this sport? If you are happy where you are, then fine, but if you wanna get to the top, then you gotta get fit. Simple as that. You can accept it or not, no skin off my nose.

Personally I play footy once a week, squash once a week. train for paintball once a week and then I play paintball too. I seriously do not think that this is enough exercise, and I am going to up it and do something else also.

Mr Van Damme? Is that you? Have you given up the movies? :confused: :D

Anyway, on a more serious note, I think the fitness levels within the world of paintball are on the up. With the way the game has moved on in the last 5 or so years players need to be more disciplined, and we are. The game is now more demanding which is why I think you have seen the, dare I say it, fat *******s fading away. Yeah, there's still a few 'Butterbeans' out there that can take the pace, but how fit do you have to be if you can sit in your back corner, dumping paint and making eliminations? To me it all depends on how seriously you take the game. If you wanna be the best you can and wanna progress in the sport, then like any other sport involving sprinting/diving/quick movement/awareness, you've gotta look after yourself. If you just play the game for the love of the sport and are happy with your position, then who says you can't go out the night before, smoke 40 fags, drink 15 pints and then play a tourny in the morning?

I drink.
I smoke.
I eat crap.

but I also.......

go to the gym two or three times a week, go running one night a week and play as much ball as possible.

It works for me!!! :D

If you have got so much time at night you should try and get a girl/boyfriend depending on your preference, or if you are as ugly as I am led to believe maybe a magazine from the top shelf, if you are too short to reach ask the nice lady behind the counter and she may help you (in more ways than one if your lucky) !!!
