It takes a lot more work to be good at a sport than a video game.

No it doesn't

Yes both require skill to be good at. Maybe they are different skills, but they are skills nonetheless. With sports, however, you have to be physically fit as well to be really good at it. Your physical fitness has very little influence on your video game skills.

Just no. The amount of physical effort needed to compete is ridiculous. Your body aches for days and you need to keep improving your fitness. For gaming, you look at a screen for long hours and use your hands. Strenuous on the eyes and hands maybe, but not even slightly the same.

Haha No. I am a hardcore gamer and I have to mentally and physically prepare myself. Sometimes I do a hand stand on my fingers anhd do push ups in that position. I then grab onto the ledge that hangs over my door with only my fingertips and do about 100 pull ups. Next i get on the floor with my legs crossed and hands out. I use all my mental skill to try to levitate just above the ground as I toss a controller from one hand to the next using only my mind. Lastly, I improver periphreal vision by using glasses that have been taped in the middle. So far I've been getting 8th place in Mario kart. 4 places up from last year when I didn't do my excercises.
