If want a structured way to exercise more, why not join a sports team instead of ROTC?

I could only see transferring for ROTC make sense if you’re about to become a Permanent Resident (e.g. through a family-based petition) and you’d like to join the US military afterwards. I don’t see any upsides for the typical F-1 student. Why not focus your energy on something that will help you after college, e.g. career development or preparing for graduate school?
