Yes, I really love working out every day.   I do an hour or so of different resistance with weights, body blades or other pieces of equipment I have then I do a 45 minute Zumba daily.  Weather permitting I walk with my dog for 45 minutes.  I'm an early riser and it's the first thing I do.

I love movement!

I enjoy indoor cycling, rowing, kettlebells, weight training.

I can do all these things by myself...no music, w/ just the 

sound of my breath...very meditative...

or

I can do all these things in a crowded room/floor...music pounding,

energy high, everyone whoopin&hollerin.

Movement/exercise use is more than just physical.

It definitely has a meditative/spiritual component for me.

Always has; always will be.

Years ago we had a family membership to the gym.  I went to the cycle classes and I LOVED it.  It was fun and I felt so good afterward.  There was one particular male instructor that I adored.  He was also a runner and mentioned one Saturday morning that he was going to run in an upcoming Disney marathon, and made some joke in class about it not killing him.  After class I went up to wish him good luck.  A few days after the race he was found dead in his kitchen. This guy looked the picture of health.  I was quite upset when I found out.  There was an autopsy done, but the family would not share the results.

After that, I continued to go to the classes, but they had two rotating instructors.  One guy was okay.  The woman they had was kind of nasty and I hated the music she played.  We eventually cancelled our membership because I was the only one in the family going to the gym anyway.

I would love to have a Peloton machine and think I would use it.  But they are quite expensive.  I have no good spot for it anyway.

We have 4 poo boxes for our cats in every corner of our house and believe me that is quite the workout walking to each one, scooping the poo into bags, emptying it into the outside trash receptacle and then walking with the big Cloud Control box of replacement sand to put into each and cleaning up sand that is on the floor instead of in the box.  They run me ragged.  I can't stand the smell of dirty liter boxes so that is my duty to clean their "duty" a few times each day.  I think they're laughing while they watch.  After that I go to the gym and sweat for an hour more.  Ugh.

I do!

I wouldn't have kept it up for almost 38 years if I didn't!

Do I like it?  No.

I do it because I like to eat.  LOL

But seriously, I do feel better when I'm moving. 

[Desertdi]

No, but I do it anyway

I do yoga, but I think of that more as a daily practice to feel better, almost like praying. That being said, I injured myself doing tree pose and now I have to deal with a bone spur on the top of my foot. I never liked to exercise, but did off and on my whole life.

No but I do like to walk and garden.
