Have you ever considered doing larping? My housemates do it every week, it’s not the same as fencing though. ---

I used to swordfight acitvely in the SCA! I don’t think larping is for me though. ---

I don’t know what SCA is. Sword something? ---

Ahh, I see, nifty. The guys I live with do the full on armour thing, but use fibreglass/foam weapons/shields. It’s actually pretty exhausting, running around for two hours carting ten kilos of crap around with you. Though I do know a couple people that go the full thing, one works at Kryal Castle, another just does the accurate equipment stuff for fun, I think it’s called HMV. ---

It’s so common in Melb! I know salty knows some friends who do it, I have some friends as well. If I had more time I would. I think it’s a bit of a luxury exercise, I’d rather just do some HIIT and be done with cardio 😂 ---

Yeah, I find cardio a bit boring, unless I’m riding my bike around the city with my headphones in (which I can do for hours), I’m not really into cardio stuff. ---

> [@Saltypatra](#): > > I used to swordfight acitvely in the SCA! @Saltypatra just earned some mad props from me on this! I never got into SCA but I was a big Amtgard proponent when I was in junior high and high school! I designed and built my own short sword, long sword, quarterstaff, and even an axe! It was fun… 🤔 😁 I have not thought about this stuff in DECADES!!! 🙀 ---

It’s so much fun, isn’t @efh313! Now I want to start again but I just don’t have the time. ☹ ---

I literally looked up the Amtgard website and spent about an hour and half just reading over all the material. I would love to play again, but as you pointed out… where is the time? Work Wife Children Gems … … … Just no time for Fantasy Swordplay in my life… 😢 ---

Maybe when your kids live on their own? It takes so much time but that’s time you can play gems with instead 😉 > [@Sin\_Ogaris](#): > > Yeah, I find cardio a bit boring, unless Yes! That’s why I do HIIT. So much quicker and you can listen to music. ---

I jog a bit but enjoy when my bf can actually join me. Otherwise I skip it sometimes. [Previous page](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/lets-get-physical-running-woman/35601.md?page=2)
