I don’t understand why so many people just go to the gym. There’s nothing wrong with the gym if you enjoy it or want to sculpt specific muscle groups. If you’re not a gym rat at heart though, don’t get stuck in that rut.
Consistency is key. Finding something that’s fun and convenient helps overcome one of the main hurdles to consistency - motivation.
Play tennis, play pickleball, go hiking, learn to roller skate, etc. It just needs to be fun and convenient. Trick yourself into better health while having fun.
