Not tried pickleball, but I used to like racquetball, which was a little faster pace. Problem these days is a budging disk at L4-L5 and L5-S1 and tweaking either one or both means pain for a while. Debating playing golf again (back issue). Pickleball looks like it would be hard on my knees (yeah, need to lose some weight). Thinking about getting my back "fixed", but not sure about the docs around here and the downside of things going wrong is scary.

You just described 90% of golfers, pickleball player’s, softball players, and Tennis players. We ant spring chickens anymore. IMO point is to get some exercise how even able.
