Serious question - would you consider exercise consumption or creation?

- TeMPOraL 7y agoNot OP. It depends. If you're trying to get to a particular shape, it could be seen as creation - getting creative with your body. But if it's just maintenance exercise, than this IMO belongs to the third category of things - it's a chore. A maintenance task. The work you have to do to stand still. Something that I personally strive to minimize.
- tedmiston 7y agoCreation of health. Unless you're actively consuming something like watching tv or reading a book while you do it. When it comes to more passive consumption like listening to music while you exercise for background noise, I would still argue it's at least neutral. But if you're listening to an audiobook or podcast (something new to you), then it feels consumption again.
