I think exercise is so important to good health. There’s a really good sports club near my school. During the week, I play tennis there for an hour before school starts. On weekends, I usually work out at the gym near my house for a few hours.

I also play baseball with some friends from school. It’s so much fun!

I don’t like jogging or doing anything too energetic. I prefer taking walks. I like to take a short walk every day through the park across from my house.

Sometimes my boyfriend goes with me. It’s nice to talk and look at the flowers and trees. On Sunday. I like to swim. but for only about a half hour. I sleep the rest of the weekend.

I am a big soccer fan, but I only watch it on TV. I can’t stand playing it! There are great games to watch on weekends. I also enjoy watching tennis. I’d like to learn someday, but I don’t like to sweat. I love chess and often play with my younger sister.

She’s really good at it and usually wins. On weekends, I love to play video games with some of my friends.

I Just love to exercise! I like many different sports. Let’s see… ,1 like swimming a lot.

I get up very early, around 5 a.m., and swim for two hours from Monday to Friday. I also enjoy basketball and play with a group of friends from work every Tuesday night. And I’ve also started playing golf this year. Before playing, I jog to warm up.

I enjoy exercise, but I don’t do it as much as I should.

I meet a friend every Wednesday and we play tennis. I’m not a very good player, but it’s fun and we usually play for an hour. On weekends. I like to bike around our neighborhood. I guess I spend an hour or two doing that. Oh, and I love baseball, but only watching it while sitting on the couch eating popcorn!
