I have played street football a lot but never badminton. The challenging one, the one that leaves us breathless, is always more enjoyable. I think you enjoyed playing basketball more. It is normal to become fat as you get older. Most of the time, the person is of a similar weight to their partner, but this can sometimes change.
Yeah, basketball was more fun in my opinion, because it was more competitive in the sense that, people tried, but still had some fun.
