Hey, so I'm kinda curious as to whom or how many people here exercise?
I don't mean going to the gym, going for walks or any sort of sports but in general does some effort to stay fit/healthy?

I don't mean any sort of shaming with this, but mostly curious due to being a healthy habit.

I highly dislike it but also know I should. It's just too damn difficult to get started.

I do Calisthenics. Anyone who likes video games (especially games with skill trees) should do Calisthenics!

I climb 2-3 times a week and end my climbing sessions with lifting heavy. Playing badminton occasionally, not very seriously though. Also a few jogs occasionally when I get the time. The only thing I feel I'm missing is doing more stretching and mobility training, and working more to get my hiking stamina up.

Climbing is really the base of it all, and probably the motivation for doing the rest to stay active. I really like climbing to the point where it just feels natural to go to the climbing gym a few times a week. I climb alone, but talk to the staff a lot so even if I'm not particularly in the mood to climb it's nice to come in, climb a bit and talk shit with the people working there. Motivation or falling off never became an issue once I started climbing regularly.

Before I started climbing I had lotta problems with motivation when I tried running or lifting regularly. Turns out just running or going to a regular gym where you talk to no one isn't stimulating enough for me.

Climbing sounds really cool. I'll never be in shape enough to do it (outside of Tomb Raider or Assassin's Creed anyway :P) but I would love to.
How did you get started if you don't mind me asking?

I started lifting three times a week last year and saw a huge improvement on my mental health.
I try to do 10/15 minutes of cardio in each lifting session, but if I have and early meeting or something urgent I might skip it (I go to the gym early in the morning, before work).
It helps tremendely since a lot of my hobbies are done sitting down.

I'm not that fit yet, but if that counts I'd assume I do stay active.

I go out of my way to stay decently fit, yes. But health problems are holding me back, a bit. But, the main reason i excercise is actually for improved metal health and well being.

I just bought some equipment for a small sports studio at home. Now I only must begin to use it.
But I caught COVID-19 just a few days after my purchase and I'm still out of breath rather quickly.
I already tested some software with the Ergometer though and I'm sure that I'll enjoy at least that.

Typically I don't particularly enjoy or like exercising/working out. However, I can do anything if I have some music playing lol. Sometimes I'll walk on the treadmill with a high incline or do workout circuits (where I move from one machine to another after completing a certain amount of sets/songs) with my playlist running. I go to a gym with a twice-a-week Zumba class and swim in the pool often which I enjoy a lot more. If I don't feel like going outside or to the gym, I like to play Just Dance on my Switch at home (I dance with my whooole body lol) and I love to get those achievements, it really motivates me.

My gf signed us for a Tai Chi class. I'm not sure I'll be flexible enough for yoga ever but Tai Chi seems like something that could help with that, and also with my anxiety.
How long have you been practicing it?

Confused by this - isn't that all deliberate exercise?

Anyway, I do strength training 4 days per week, and go Spinning 4 times per week. I'm also a week into the 75 Hard challenge.

I've just started exercising every day for the first time ever. I got the old exercise bike out of the closet and set it up in front of the TV, and I've been riding every night while playing PS5 games. I would like to ramp up the mileage a bit, but that bike seat is just so damn uncomfortable (and that's with a padded seat cover and padded cycling shorts).
