Regular walking and bodyweight exercises are my go to. I'll usually do some push-ups and/or sit-ups most days and several thousand steps. Plan to get back into running again soon, and maybe lift some weights but that's never really been my thing.

Ah, so you have a daily routine involving push-ups too. Out of curiosity, how many do you typically do? I've set a minimum limit of 10 for myself, but I'm trying to build up towards more.
Did you run much before? I just started about a year ago. It's painful but also very satisfying to feel the progress
I tend to do 25 push-ups (+ always one for luck!) a few times during the day, so I may do 100 in total, maybe more or less but some under my belt either way.
As for running, no, never liked it (whilst doing other sports, fine, but not of itself) but always fancied doing 10Ks etc. Then I got into it and enjoyed some aspects but had knee trouble. That seems to be fine now but I always go in phases of a few months then get out of the routine. The main thing for me is the mental side, but there are better exercise for the physical
a hundred in total every day! Omg I still got a way to go huh. But hey, 10 a day is a lot more than 0 :D
I never liked running either until just recently. It's a lot of pain before it becomes enjoyable, in my experience anyways lol
Sometimes I just do a load of crunches instead but most days I'll get around that. It's about doing whatever you can/want and building from there, anything is worthwhile and over time adds up.
I think that's one of the 'joys' of running, the fact that it can be so bad but yet so good at the same time!
