Any sport you want, but you have to make it into the Olympics- if not your family will be killed. What sport would you train in? Must go to the Olympics for your home country- no going to some poverty country and playing for them.
I would probably choose either the biathlon (shooting+skiing) or the petathlon* (run, swim, shoot, horse, fence). Something like that that not many people in the US train for (compared to other sports). Endurance and shooting seem up my alley enough if I had 4 years to train.

You're implying that if I trained for 4 years, I'd have a shot to make it in the Olympics, in any event, and therefore save my family...
You're wrong.Pain is an illusion created by the mind to prevent you from going beyond what you're capable of.
I have too much DOM's, and CNS fatigue, to give a phuck about things like friends anymore. Friends don't understand my caloric needs, only I do.

So essentially you gotta be better then 98% of the people in the USA at whatever sport you so choose. Good luck.
I'd definitely do something endurance-wise for sure.

weightlifting. would take massive amounts of celltech / hormones and hire the best coachs in the world. would also cut down to the lowest weight class.

Fencing, i would practice for hours every day, i would learn the skills in 4 years that it takes the best to learn in a lifetime and i would make the team. People would say it is impossible as i am too old at 35 but then they would realise that i was the Randy Couture of Fencing and at age 39 i would make the team.....they would nickname me "The Dark Knight".
Come to think about it, i may actually do this....Last edited by doughnutking; 07-31-2012 at 09:10 PM.
