But it is still possible to get in shape, as I have after 2-3 years of consistent gym'ing, hehe. It could be much faster, if I prioritize training and "getting big" above all else, but I am happy with my own pace. I'm a BIG basketball fan too :) I don't really know groups of people to play games together, so I understand how hard it is. What I do is - If I'm alone, I practice my shooting. I get better at jump shooting (important cuz I'm short) and I get to chase the ball around for cardio. Since weather has gotten warmer here in Bay Area. I have been going to pick-up games and is amazed at my ability to jump shoot over taller people. It makes me very excited because I didn't really start playing until about 2 years ago... This feeling of accomplishment is another great reward for choosing to exercise and train. So it is wonderful that you are making the conscious effort to walk and climb stairs.

My friends and I used to have weekly outdoors basketball, which I felt kept me in good shape, and that's something I missed as we no longer maintain it and everyone is both too busy and out of shape. However, I was able to play outdoors bball last week with some old classmates and it was tiring and fun! One of the benefits of getting back to a warmer, humid climate. I still think bball is the best all around exercise you can get. Lately, to keep in minimum condition in the urban jungle, I walk as often as I can, climb several flights of stairs, etc. just like in my college days. By making it harder on ourselves now, we actually make it easier for ourselves later on. Same here, fast metabolism, which bothered me when I was younger, but am more accepting of it now.
