In my youth it was rock climbing. You can’t really quit something if it means falling to your death 🤣
But seriously anything that keeps your brain occupied. For me it was competitive sports. Basketball, ultimate frisbee, anything like that. Now that I’m old, it’s getting up from my chair to go pee. I also like what I consider “exercise games” like Beat Saber.
Tl;dr… anything that tricks your brain into seeing it as fun and not exercise.
