<p>Do we love sport as representation of health  and beauty or do we entirely see it as entertainment with all its down points as drugs and injuries?</p>
<p>My partner does rowing and I was contemplating whether I should do it too. In Russia, for example, popular sports are those which are beautiful and entertaining to watch like figure skating, synchronic swimming, gymnastics and so on. But you can&#8217;t find anything like chess on TV because there you have to follow the work of brain muscles and it is not that beautiful at all. So after all, if you want to be a popular athlete don&#8217;t do smart things.</p>

<p>Спортом заниматься хочется из-за красоты. Красоты окружающей и спортивной.</p>
<p>Мой партнер занимается греблей и я очень часто думаю, не начать ли и мне грести? А может, выбрать другой спорт?</p>
<p>В России,  например, популярны виды спорта, на которые приятно смотреть. Скажем, фигурное катание, синхронное плавание, прыжки в воду, художественная гимнастика и т.д., а вот скажем, шахматы транслируются на большой экран реже, потому что там нужно следить за мышцей мозга, а она, однако не красива. Вот и получается, что спорт &#8211; это не просто умение, это умение красиво, не обязательно умно, себя показать.</p>
