any answer other than olympic lifting is just gimping your kids athletic potential

only 1 athletic activity is literally stupid, I'd pick basketball then because it's cardio, hand eye coordination, team sport and explosive movements, or wrestling/mma because those are practical skills for life

baseball or swimming

>Conventional lifting is bad for athletes

I'm not knocking the clean and press, but a lot of track athletes who run sprints do conventional squat and lunges / American football and rugby teams do standard lifts to add mass to their players. A lot of Soviet wrestling teams did kettlebell routines and Olympic lifts and were pretty functional but track athletes seem to benefit a lot from weighted lunges and squats.

basketball may possibly make them taller with all the sprinting combined with jumping, but you also get social development. it would probably be pretty sick to pullup to random parks and dunk on everyone with a crowd watching, take home some park milfs, but I'm 30 and would take forever to get good at basketball now.

Yes. Clearly you never grew up doing MA because you don't go 110% every class. Most classes are light practice sessions when it comes to combative portions. Sometimes entire classes are just workouts too

might as well not do anything at all because using your shit gives you damage
soccer gives brain injuries, basketball has a high injury rate, I'm sure badminton players get elbow pain. knee injuries for table tennis, wrist injuries for archery. shoulder damage from violin, wrist damage from piano. you're a fucking faggot that wants your kids to live like books on shelves.

boxing like a retard gives you brain damage. though I'm sure you're too stupid to have that kind of nuance or know anything deeper about the sport beyond webms you've seen here or knockout compilations you watched in high school. men smarter than both of us put together have boxed in their youths into adulthood without getting lisps or forgetting where their keys are every morning.
fuck you.
words cannot express my distaste for you lilly-white pansies who are averse to any real, difficult physical challenge cause it carries some risk of damage. being a retard and wormbacking a deadlift or ego sparring is one thing, saying a daughter can't do gymnastics cause it can "give you joint damage over time" is another. go ahead, never be a winner in anything.

you'll be in my hospital in fifty years with perfect joints, sick like the rest of us. but some of us will have actually known what it means to win something.

Throw them into everything, see what they have a passion/talent for.
Remove distractions like video games, tv, toys, etc. so they can actually make an informed decision. Then support their decision and make it an effort to establish practicing as much as they can.

You're a retard. Anyone who makes it to a professional league in any sports never lifted weights until they were in high school. They need to use their youth to learn the hand-eye coordination and the creativity for their sport. Some of the best athletes don't look like they are work out.

This is most likely scientifically true. I started playing basketball at 12 when I was 6'2 and by the time I was 18 I had become 6'6 so playing basketball as a youth definitely makes you taller.

When I was 13 girls did not look like this. When I was 13 girls had like cheap $20 makeup products from Walgreens or CVS and they didn't know how to use those products very well. And they barely knew how to dress or do their hair. Now these girls are using $100+ make up products and following YouTube tutorials on how to apply it. They're spending a ton of money on skincare and getting their hair done at expensive salons.
It's humbling for her because she sees how much effort these girls are putting in while she was just a retarded kid when she was 13. It used to take women years to figure out how to look good and now every 13 year old figures it out immediately.

Assuming I have a son, I make him do MMA, giving him brain damage from repeated head trauma in his developmental years thereby giving me the permanent upper hand over him and preventing him from ever toppling my position as the patriarch of the family. Ideally, it would also make him strong as fuck, allowing me to maintain a sort of 'Master Blaster' symbiotic relationship once I reach old age and my physical state starts to decline.

With women, you're screwed. Put them in a team sport and they will either be groomed by the high test lesbians in that sport (soccer, basketball, baseball, etc) or become a whore (cheerleading). Put them in a solo sport and you become that meme of the ultimate cuck who put his daughter in gymnastics or bodybuilding, etc so that she would be the ultimate pleasure toy for men in the future.
Just let your kids pick what they find most fun. If a girl doesn't want to play a sport, then that's fine.
