lol yeah, it’s easy to make excuses and say it’s an opportunity cost issue when there is so much to do, but the longterm effects of this are bad
i hate the gym with a passion, if I could just do a workout outside that would be ideal. I comprimised with a 60lb ruck sack + walking in nature.
Exercise really do fix things. I’ve been addicted to going to a nearby hiking trail and walking up a big hill with a 10-ish pound rock, lifting it and swinging it around and such as i go. Shirtless in the sun. It makes me feel very gud doing this. Feels like something people have done for thousands of years. Fuck a gym!
I did this sometimes when working from home during lockdowns, massive improvement on energy levels and my overall mood.
Try to get in at least 10,000 steps a day. It's easier and harder than you think. But the benefits are dramatic. If you include 30 to 40 minutes of brisk walking three or four times a week, plus a light free-weight. You will essentially be physically fit. You can essentially accomplish this anywhere. Even indoors. Or with a portable lightweight treadmill\walker. I have an app on my phone that counts my steps. My phone is always in my pocket or hand. Sometimes I turn on airplane mode. But it still counts my steps. From this solid base you can always add additional things. Like going to the gym etc..💜😊
