Correct answer: by playing a high-contact sport.
Explanation: to incur risk is to bring exposure to harm or loss upon yourself. Playing a high-contact sport (e.g., football, rugby) increases the chance of injury and so incurs risk. Studying hard, buying insurance, or taking up sewing do not typically "bring risk upon oneself" in the same way: studying reduces academic risk, insurance transfers/mitigates financial risk, and sewing carries only minimal, incidental risk.
