Seriously depends. If someone is out of shape, starting with a game can be both disheartening when you physically cannot compete and make you far more likely to injure yourself when you're not paying full attention to what your body is doing.

Going from out of shape (and most nonphysical people are out of shape nearly completely) to in shape is a treacherous path that should not be taken lightly.

Not to say sports are a bad idea, but they aren't a silver bullet.
