Sports To-do: edit  Here are some tasks you can do: Requests: Average (sports) (crucial article explaining the concept, nomenclature, math; redir to it from Average (sport); use Batting average as starting point for ideas) Cleanup: Sport governing body (this should-be-major article is in a shameful state) Field hockey (History section needs sources and accurate information - very vague at the moment.) Other: Assess: newly added and existing articles, maybe nominate some good B-class articles for GA; independently assess some as A-class, regardless of GA status. Split: Cross-training into Cross-training and Cross-training (business); Hockey puck into Puck (sports) (w/ Puck (sport) redir) and Hockey puck (and update Puck DAB page); Swimming into Swimming (general activity) and Swimming (sport) (eventually create subarticles for varieties) Categorize: Gather all (major/olympic) sports to be part of this project Photographs for pages listed in Wikipedia:Requested pictures/Society#Sport and referenced categories.

[edit] Jogging and Weight Loss

Jogging/Running is *not* great for weight loss - see http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20061006072627AARyx8w

One needs to burn ~ 7709kcal to lose 1KG of weight; considering that one burns ~400-600 calories on a 40 minutes run, this makes running/jogging not suitable to lose any significant amount of weight. Running/jogging is good for cardiovascular health etc, not that great for weight loss.

I'm only making this remark and removing weight loss from the article because it says jogging is *excellent* for (among other things) weight loss, and that is incorrect. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.22.17.158 (talk) 15:43, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Split

Please consider separating this article into two articles. It's a primary topic under health and fitness, and the term is common in sports training. The use of the term in the context of employee development does not relate to physical fitness or sports training. Please consider adding an article such as Cross training (human resources) and moving the employee cross training information there. Thanks. --SueHay 21:35, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
