In your opinion, which sports aren't athletic?

Like no one gets out of breath or breaks into a sweat...

I wouldn't necessarily regard breathlessness or sweat as key measures of athletic endeavour . . otherwise we might need to consider darts to be the supreme athletic activity!

I do however draw the line at "e-sports". And "enhanced sports" (conventional athletics which allow the use of performance-enhancing substances) are nothing to do with real sports.
springboard diving. although one has to be in good shape to compete i don't think they break a sweat or lose their breath...well, i might at 10 meters 😬

Wouldn’t call it a sport.
@Wiseacre

@bijouxbroussard

Hmmmm... well, Jack Nicklaus was called Ohio Fats (probably for a good reason) 😆
@bijouxbroussard i've broken a sweat and huffed and puffed walking courses that are hilly in hot weather.....now my old butt uses a golf cart....plus they have beer holders 😋

Golf, darts or any sport you don't sweat in.

@Lostpoet You know what you call a person that sweats when they bowl? A professional bowler.
@SpectralMourning

Pro Bowling used to be on network TV a long time ago... it never really caught on. I remember Earl Anthony - seems like he won all the time.
