I want to gain muscle, which sport is best?

Posted at: 2015-05-07 
I want to gain weight but I don't want fat.. I'm not a very active type and I'm not really that into sports but would like to stay fit. Any suggestions for a good sport to do?

I really don't want to lose weight, so very intensive cardio might not work.

As trustin says.... The standard paradigm is that you don't play sports to get fit, you get fit to play sports.

No sport will "gain muscle"..... You do that in the gym.

For overall fitness, you would want to do a combination of things. Enough aerobic ("cardio") exercise for cardiovascular fitness, and either resistance exercise (weights) or bodyweight/calisthenic work for upper-body strength and bone health.

A sport won't gain you muscle. Just because you play football, you're not gonna automatically win muscle. They lift weights

Believe it or not but track is a great sport to do that but its not track season so maybe cross country but they are like what every sport does which is running it helps alot later in life too

Weights/lifting

Boxing

Swimming

Push ups and bench presses

racing

good question
