Sports Ability poll

[I Are Baboon]

I stole this from Men's Health.

Which of these abilities would you most like to have?

(and you have to pick one of these, you can't make up your own)

 

[Arnold]

I voted Bench Press 300lbs, which on a site like this that should be the most common response!

Unless you're a 115 lb weakling

I'd have to go w/ the running.

 

[ZECH]

Well, I'm working on 300 lb bench! But man if I could throw a 90mph fastball I could be in the majors making big bucks and buying more bikes!

 

[I Are Baboon]

I picked bench press 300lbs. I can never see my narrow frame lifting that much, but it'd sure be nice. A 300 yard drive is a close second.

 

[seyone]

I voted for the 300lb bench, will get there some day.

 

[CRASHMAN]

yes i would put the 300lb bench too but i've done that before so does that count?

 

[seyone]

if you have already done it then why not pic something else?

 

[CRASHMAN]

I can do everything

 

[CRASHMAN]

HAHA! i wish but 4 minute mile would be cool

 

[realdeal]

I voted 300 yard drive. I'd win some money.

Plus my bench can always get higher.

 

[Arnold]

oh, let me re-phrase....I can already bench 300lbs!

 

[digger1]

Most difficult thing in sports is to hit a golfball and hit it a long way, stright.

 

[ALBOB]

Damn it IAB, I've got to start remembering to READ your surveys BEFORE voting. I thought is was a survey of what you could ALREADY do. I voted for the 300 yard drive. (Sorry Digger, I'm pretty consistant with the 300 yard drive in the fairways. But as usual, it's my chipping and putting that SUCK!!! ) If I'd read your post first I would have said 600 pound squat. (I don't do bench presses. )

 

[candu]

I can hit the 300 yard drive so I had to
go with the 300lb bench. Does being in the fairway count. I'm only there about 50% of the time.

 

[nikegurl]

i had to go for the field goal. boy that would piss off the bf.

can you imagine....honey let's go to the park. i feel like kicking.

oh? you didn't know i could do that? i thought i told you i loved football? no. my bad.

 

[bubbasr]

I had to vote for the 300 LB. pench press.

 

[ksiebert]

I have to go with crashman, and say bench press 400lbs. We've done the 300lb thing, but I think 400lbs would be awsome!

Since I can already bench over 400, I chose a 300 yard drive.

 

[picasso]

How about hitting that 90 mph fastball.
Worse yet would be hitting that 75 mph
curveball that starts out behind your head
but crosses the plate for a strike.

 

[jay]

a 4minute mile of course

 

[calamity528]

I would pick the 4 minute mile. To be able run that fast would be cool. Second would be the 300 yard drive.

 

[Solid_Steel]

I'd say a 4min mile also.

THE POLL

I put throw a 90 MPH fast ball as baseball used to be my first love before bodybuilding, although I am a Centre Fielder and not a pitcher. I would have chose bench press 300 lbs. but I have already with hard work and dedication achieved this great milestone.

 

[Craft]

Well I chose the 300lb bench press, the day I can press 300lbs will be a great day!

 

[john992]

Breaking the 295 lbs. Bench press plateau was one of the greatest days in my life! VERY EXCITING INDEED! You'll make it CRAFT, just keep pushing hard, eating lots of healthy food, and sleeping like a baby!

PS throw drink lots of water in there somewhere to, as we all know muscle is about 75% water. SO where would we be without it? GO CRAFT GO!!!!

 

[TriZZle305]

I picked dunk a basketball and tied for second place were 4 minute mile and 300LB benchpress.. i think i might be able to get all of them one day(except maybe 4 min mile)

 

[john992]

Just pondering over here, I wonder which one of these achievements has actually been achieved the least. Better yet ranked in order from least achieved to most achieved, I wonder what it would look like?

I'd venture to guess that throwing a 90 MPH fastball and hitting a golf ball 300 yards has been done the least. It seems to me that anyone who can do one of these two feats would be a professional, and even the pros have a hard time with these two things.

 

[Poolboy]

I love to play golf and would love to hit a ball 300 yards.
