Hai everyone. Are you ready to learn something new? 

Today's topic is about Ultimate Frisbee❗❗❗ Whuuutttt is that ❓❓❓ Ahaaaa, according to whatisultimate.com on 2015, ultimate frisbee is an exciting, non-contact team sport played by thousands all over the world in Open, Mixed and Women's teams. It is fast-paced game, demanding its player to develop razor sharp throwing skill and immense stamina & agility. Did you know about this sport? No? Actually, ultimate is a newcomer friendly. I learn about this sport because it was played by one of my friends. To make it short, ultimate has been played by flying a disc "frisbee" to their own teammates. Seems like easy peasy lemon squeezy right? But, NOT FOR ME 😂 It is a high intensity sport where you need to develop more on your cardiovascular endurance.
