    I accidentally got a manual labor job and it’s the only way I have or will ever exercise.

    Voluntary exercise is the most physically and mentally torturous activity. It is pure boredom plus pain and has never made me feel anything but worse, eg curled up on the couch staring at the wall for an hour in despair. Fuck exercise.

    Turns out that if you pay me and give me a reason to move around I have no problem. Exercise for it’s own sake is just not doable for me, the pointlessness and misery are depression inducing.

      I bike to work, so I automatically do a workout 2 times a day. I definetly wouldn’t be able to get myself to do sport 2 times a day otherwise.
