As a middle aged man I use skateboarding solely for exercise and the dopamine rush. If I went to the gym I would be bored to tears. I go to the skate park and just pump around in the bowl as hard as I can for a few hours. It's great. I'm on the carve and grind program.

Ah, I like that. I actually try to go to the gym to keep my leg strength up _for_ skateboarding. I partially blame my passion for programming (i.e. sitting for long stretches of time) for it. Realistically, I know it's partially my age catching up with me, though, I'd rather not admit that ;).
