AyeReadyStu 70 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 So if it's more tiring then how's it possible to play tennis for 4 hours and not football?Who said it was impossible to play football for 4 hours? If you want to play for 4 hours no one's stopping you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKingObv 10,646 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Who said it was impossible to play football for 4 hours? If you want to play for 4 hours no one's stopping you.So you think it's possible to play 4 hours of football without a significant drop in athletic performance? As this is possible with tennis. That's the whole intensity argument. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As this is possible with tennis.That's the whole intensity argument.What on earth makes you think it's possible to play 4 hours of tennis without a performance drop? That idea is ludicrous, not even most pros can do that. Even Murray and Djokovic are suffering after 4 hours. The only reason they can produce quality tennis after that amount of time is because they are extraordinary athletes, not average joes. You're comparing the endurance of the top top tennis players with your average bloke on the street footballer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingKirk 25,655 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 You need to perform at 70% plus for 90mins to continue to do that for 4hrs is impossible that's why football is more intense ffsNo rocket science Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dummiesoot 16,006 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I'm not arguing playing 4 hours of tennis is tougher than 90 minutes of football, because it definitely is.I'm saying 90 minutes of football is harder than 90 minutes of tennis, which is undeniable.I wasn't arguing with you mate, just pointing out different types of fitness.

AyeReadyStu 70 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Apparently it is to some though...We'll have to agree to disagree then, as dummiesoot said, different kinds of fitness, but some obviously have to be a bit of a prick when it comes to differing viewpoints concerning said fitness.
