It might be a bit late now for you guys, but getting into team sports is always a good idea. You get to learn new people and during training you're so much more motivated. I mean, no way some other guy is going to run faster than me.

I grew up playing team sports. In the US unless you're a professional, team sports after about age 20 get really simple. You basically just show up and play with little or no training. There was an amateur soccer team in my college town I was playing with, that had aspirations of going semi-pro. Training turned into basically one huge scrimmage or small sided games. Then a couple of guys including myself were told we were second choice on the squad and not to bother showing up on game day. The coach said that even though we were better than the other guys in our positions the team had voted and decided to keep us as reserves. That was two years ago and the team has since disbanded. So really even if you get in a men's league or the equivalent of a pub team training is really up to you.

I still have 6 months on my gym membership. I went there seven times. I take the bicycle to work, I am running and doing long distance bike tours every now and then. I guess I will get me some weights and finally get to hang my punching bag and do as you do.

i was cycling about 18 miles a day back and forth from work but looking into getting a car through work which will put my cycling to a halt:faq1: but the running is coming along nicely, get the punchbag up and do 3-minute sessions with 1-minute rest,to start with it will kill your arms but is great for endurance

oh yeah,sweat pours off you but there is a very liberating feeling to pounding a punch-bag. i would say it is a great de-stresser but TBH stress is not really a major factor in my life

It's not stress in the meaning of stress, it is just to take off the burden of every day routine.

I am so hanging it up.
