I mean it's great that you're doing nearly 2 hours of exercise a day, but many people I know drive to work, sit down all day, drive home, sit down all evening. It seems to be pretty common at least across the UK:

It found that just over 8% of adults who could walk had not – with the exception of shopping – walked continuously for five minutes within the previous four weeks, while 46% had not walked for leisure for 30 minutes continuously over the same period. Almost nine out of 10 had not swum and a similar proportion had not used a gym.
