My Mars sign is Cancer.I like to go for walks/hikes and ride bicycles, but I just never have the energy to do much of anything. Ironically, I can never sit still, even when I'm sitting in front of my computer haha. IP: Logged |

Sag Mars, and I love to do many things...One combo I like is aerobics & weight training as it tires me but makes me feel so good (I can pick myself up with a protein shake after if I need to, though what I really like doing is going home and letting the cat knead my abs while I relax all tired), and after that (and all sweaty) I do the hot sauna/cold shower routine for about an hour (I may get into a jacuzzi for awhile but not often), but I want the sauna HOT (so that I sweat buckets) and shower COLD (it's so bracing, I utterly feel alive as the cold water hits me even if I usually flinch when it first does), with a normal shower after (I don't like to leave sweaty). This is all about the endorphins, however (though it helps appeal to Leo vanity as well, I'm sure, though my Libra energy sees a lot of benefit to it as well). I fell in love with skateboarding, but my interest in that waned in my early 20s (I'll still get around on a longboard but it's purely transportation now, though it can still be a little fun once in awhile) and was replaced by surfing. Despite the exertion it's like a combination of meditation (the concentration), thrill, and physical activity (the endorphins that come from it, and one reason I work out a lot is to help make sure I stay fit enough not to hurt myself). I've been surfing less & less the last couple of years, however. There's also archery (and shooting sports to a lesser extent). Archery is more like meditation, however...so are the shooting sports, but I prefer archery and archery is purely for fun while shooting has a practical side. I did used to love dancing, especially in how I'd alter my consciousness in a freestyle liquid way, other types of dance being less appealing to me (though still enjoyable, at least for awhile). I don't care much for that now, however. Interesting enough I think I started losing interest in it (so that I no longer felt driven to do it as opposed to taking part when the opportunity presented itself) right about the same time I lost interest in skateboarding, though that's probably just a coincidence. There are plenty of other physical activities I enjoy as well, from swimming (but I prefer lakes & ocean to pools) to hiking. Yet I generally don't like serious competition (including team sports), that is a casual game or competition is fine but not where people get too serious about it, and for some reason I hate rock climbing (but I did used to enjoy climbing trees and playground equipment as a child and will still enjoy climbing activities sometimes).

11H Gemini MarsWalking/hiking The thing is, I think it's my Cap sun/Pisces moon dictating this choice. I like walking 10+ miles at a time, alone...and I would do that every day if I could (Cap sun takes things to extremes.) Meanwhile I am daydreaming or sometimes brainstorming on how to fix certain problems I have. It doesn't have anything to do with socializing or talking to other people as my Mars would suggest.

My Mars is in Capricorn, plus a Cap Sun. I like road cycling, mountain biking, swimming, soccer, tennis, golf, Tae Kwon Do and Karate. I shoot firearms at a range. I also race cars on a track. Driving can be rather physically demanding. In general, I like speed and I like competitive sports. IP: Logged |

I have a Virgo Mars conj Asc and have been exercising since I was 5. Soccer, horses, running, skiing, yoga, biking, walking, hiking.Lately I have been really into biking! It's kinda the way we are brought up in Europe tho. My parents never let me have tv or a computer so I was always outside. I still don't have a tv. If I can't be physically active my brain will explode!!

Mars in Cancer. SO lazy sometimes, I hate exercising! I like running and kick boxing OK. I think boxing is my favorite since I have a Pluto trine to Mars and punching + kicking gets out the strong side in me, makes me feel more powerful. But I hate group sports, my Mars can't take the pressure. IP: Logged |

I hate exercise, so I don't exercise. Running around and lifting weights just for the hell of it seems stupid to me.Probably the only kind of physical activity I could get into is something that has an expressive or creative component to it - I'm talking ballet specifically. I'd love to try that, and (maybe) a martial art (I've seen too many kung-fu movies). IP: Logged |

i agree with the group sports thing, i remember i was always last to get picked when we played class soccer..the ball would come right in front of me and i was like...mehh. On the ohter hand i really excelled in individual sport, i was on the track and feild team...i could out run you, out hurdle you, out shot put you, you name it. also excellent swimmer i have mars in cancer trine scorp pluto. i like it when i can take all my energy out myself without relying on others. (power issues much? lol) i think mars in cancer are extremist, we either dont care or when we do, we DO tHe DaMN tHINg! serious outbursts kickboxing seems like a good idea. IP: Logged |

I hate group sports too. I only excel if everyone on the team relies on me. I am very good at 1 on one though like basketball. I used to beat my friends who were on the team. I chose judo since it was more rough. And I just probably really hate the sport lol! So popular here when everyone is so short. I was also on the soccer team for a year in high school. I never played a game coz of my deportment. I enjoyed practice though. I was always striker against all the starters. I scored a goal every time but they scored 3-5 on us always. I enjoy boxing a lot. I think I'm pretty good at it now. Great cardio. IP: Logged |

On the topic of group sports, I'm good with defense! It's rewarding to put a dead stop to the other testosterone-pumped guys and ignore them yell t me and try to say I cheated!  IP: Logged |
