I've never enjoyed gyms or traditional workouts, but yoga clicks with me.

MODERATORS
I enjoy the social aspect of running. Parkruns, Strava, meeting friends and getting coffee after etc.
Just fuck my body up until I’m exhausted to a limit I haven’t been before. I like that
Many of us do not.
Yeah, I find the best approach for me is to workout as long as it's still fun. As long as you're trying to do more than the day before, you'll make progress, if that's what you want.
When I'm not feeling it, I just tell myself that if I start and I'm not feeling it, I can leave, but by then I'm invested and looking forward to it.
Cycling/Spinning
It's usually low impact on the knees & backs of perrenial beginners like me. If I'm stationary cycling, I can sneak in my favorite entertainment to make the time fly by.
I have to walk the dog, so I get myself out. Once I've started walking doing a little longer than the bare minimum is not too bad. If the weather is nice it's actually quite enjoyable.
Soccer
Find your inner voice and listen to it. Youtube is all crap. Don't listen to parental advice. Teachers are not always right. Listen to your inner voice.
