Talk About Your Leisure Activities band 8.0+

Talk About Your Leisure Activities

You should say:

  • What it is
  • How often do you do it
  • Where you do it
  • And explain why you like to do it.

Sample Answer – Band 6.5:

So now I would like to tell you about one of my leisure activities which is going to the gym. You know all my friends love hitting the gym after work and they have inspired  me to follow them too.

Actually, I never miss a day at the gym. I mean I always go there after work except  for Sunday, when I need to rest so that my muscles have time to recover. Normally I will spend around 1 hour per day if my schedule is tight . 

The gym I go to is not far from my office, which is only 10 minutes away by motorbike. This is such an ideal distance  because I can make the best use of my time at the gym. 

Gymming is what I really love to do because after work I need to do something to unwind . In the office, I am sometimes overworked  and stressed. Hitting the gym is a great chance for me to release all the negative feelings after long working hours. What’s more? I have made a lot of new friends who share the same interest as me since I started being at the gym every day. Those are the reasons why I choose the gym to be my favorite thing to do.

Sample Answer – Band 8:

OK so now it is a pleasure to share with you one of my pastimes which I enjoy doing. It is to work out at the gym. You know, all my friends love to do it and I am no exception as I was inspired by them after hearing them nagging me a lot.  

Honestly speaking, I am proud to say that I have never skipped a day at the gym. I mean I always go there after work except for Sunday, when I need to rest so that my muscles have time to recover. Normally I will spend around 1 hour per day if my schedule is tight, but when I am snowed under deadlines and assignments, I will only do the warm-up or quick cardio exercises for 30 minutes and leave.  

The gym I go to is not too far from my office, which is only 10 minutes away by motorbike. You see, this is such an ideal distance because I can make the best use of my time at the gym without any struggle in traffic jams

Gymming is what I really love to invest my time in because after work I need to do something to unwind. In the office, I am sometimes overworked and stressed, which is upsetting. Hitting the gym is a great chance for me to release all those negative feelings after long working hours. But on top of that, I have made a lot of new friends who share the same cup of tea with me since I started frequenting the gym every day. In conclusion, those are the reasons why I choose gym to be my favorite thing to do and I wish I will still have the passion for this hobby for a long time.
