My anecdata is definitely in opposition to your anecdata :-) I’ve personally struggled in the past to keep a consistent fitness habit because it felt like it took a lot of time. However, Covid gave me a couple of extra hours a day, and, coupled with the discovery of amazing body weight exercises on YouTube, I’ve been working out virtually every day for the past 3 months. That’s longer and more frequently than I have ever exercised previously.
- sickcodebruh 6y agoI think that speaks to your ability to adapt, which is great! My wife found herself in a similar boat: prior to COVID, she did abbreviated workouts every day after work; since COVID, she's arranged her schedule to get her ideal workouts every morning plus yoga and some extra runs with me. I've finally reached a same place, doing 5-6 days a week instead of 3-4, but it was almost entirely because she harangued me. Finding a fitness routine was never natural for me and I feel for all the people who got thrown off their game and still haven't recovered.
- meheleventyone 6y agoYeah I agree with this although not Covid enforced working from home means I now swim 5x a week. Before although I didn’t have a big commute I definitely felt social pressure that made me feel like I didn’t have time to fit it in. I found it really energises me in the morning and obviously it’s done wonders for my overall health and fitness.
