Going to the gym... I know it's good for me, I know I should be going but I can't help but feel that I'm wasting my money, only to be doing something less productive that I don't really enjoy doing...

Also watching shows, ik one-piece is probably good, I'm not watching 1000 episodes of anything, no matter how good it is

@Presi300 @MisterHavoc it's tough - I find that I dislike exercising just for the sake of exercising. Going on a bike ride or hike feels like exploring, seeing nice scenery. Playing sports is FUN, and the objective is to get the goal/do the thing, not make pain in body to make it healthier.

For me the key was to find something I liked doing where being active was a side effect. (Like someone mentioned, gardening! I hadn't thought of that one)

I LOVE hiking, though I don't do it much anymore because I don't have all the time in the world, I still think it's fun

@Presi300 Yes!!! Especially ones with a view - slowly working your way to a waterfall or overlook is like finding a hidden secret in the woods. Even on repeat hikes, you get to see the seasons change etc.
