Dear teachers,

How would you change this sentence:

Doing this sport your whole body is required.

I thought for example:

In this sport you need your whole body.
or
This sport wants all your muscles to move.
or
To do this sport you need your entire body.

What do you think - any better suggestions closer to the orignial sentence?

I'd really be grateful for your help.
Crisi

Hi Crisi,

Try:

For this sport, you need to use every muscle in your body.

For this sport, every muscle in your body is used.

To do this sport, you need to use all the muscles in your body.

To do this sport, you need to use your whole body.

In this sport, the entire body is used.
