Thoughts on adding interests on your resume?

By "interests" I mean activities you like to do on your free time (i.e., sports, instruments). I want to hear your thoughts on adding those on a resume even if they are not related to the job/profession you are seeking.

Some professionals say you can add those, but others say you shouldn't; so that's always something I'm not sure about. I'd appreciate your thoughts.
