It doesn't have to be this way. The best way to stick with an exercise is to find one that you enjoy. For some people that's lifting weights, or running distances. Others like biking or yoga. I play ultimate frisbee, which I find to be a lot of fun and a great exercise. I'll be the first to admit that I should do more, but chasing a piece of plastic through the air for two hours a week is a whole lot better than sitting down at home. Try seeing what sports leagues are in your area, maybe you'll find something you like.

The best way to stick with an exercise is to find one that you enjoy. The mistake you're making is assuming that everyone enjoys at least one form of exercise, much less would prefer to do it other than something else. My short-term analysis is, 'why would I want to be sweaty, sore and out-of-breath when I can be perfectly happy at home, doing what I want?' My long-term analysis, of course, is that I should exercise in spite of hating every single minute I spend on it.
- herbst 10y agoExactly. For some people its not about finding the right sport. What i did for myself was searching for a gym where i waste the least time, found one that has a 45 minute programm and went for it. Not that this works well motivation wise, but it was the first time it did not sound like wasting to much valueable energy and time.
