Opinion

I believe that no sport helps to improve in poker, I consider that this is 50% luck and 50% that I make good decisions.

Climbing

climbing, for example, helps me concentrate for the next move, otherwise I can fall.

I don't go in for sports for reasons independent of me, but I'm not sure that if I were an athlete, it would be better to play poker

I do not think that any sport helps, if I usually do relaxation techniques, to be able to play more calmly.

I believe that things you have learned doing anything, can help when you are doing something else.

Poker is already a sport. A mental sport, so just study and practice a lot.

Maybe Football

I don t thinks so, but maybe football will help you because theoretically when we talk about poker we talk about odds and posibility it's the same basics of betting or watching a match you will never know what will happen and you can't say that the team lost until the match end.

Sports like chess or dominoes help a lot to logical and mathematical thinking that are also used in poker, so you maintain your skills with both aspects and integrate them with Poker and the decisions you make when playing it.:D

I don't think that a specific sport can help to improve your poker game, but when we practice any sport we usually feel better and less stressed and I know I have more patience and make better poker decisions when I'm feeling well.

I think that sports do not affect the poker game itself at all, but sports can help with discipline, and this is a very important part of the game! Sports will still help with health and especially with your back, since poker is a sedentary game and many players begin to have back problems over time! But this is personally my opinion and I ask you not to judge me strictly! I wish everyone health and good luck at the tables!

Any physical activity helps with poker. There is some relation between exercises and brain functions that I don't know to explain. But there is. All those healthy habits talked on the internet are important too.

Skiing. If you break your leg, you may as well be playing poker, because you can't walk...

You don't gain poker skills in sports. However, exercising will make you healthier and feel better. It will make you more durable and you will not be tired. I think any sport activity is good for you!

I've actually found poker helped me with golf. Patience I learned playing fold-em has helped me be less aggressive on the course. Still trying to find a sport that helps me with poker..

Fishing is unironically good as it teaches you patience. ( and how to reel a whale in)

I don't play sports but if I do exercises to keep in shape, this definitely helps me with concentration as this is very important in poker.
