To hate just about all forms of exercise

On my way to the gym.

Dreading it. Hate getting sweaty. Hate puffing and panting. Hate the aches and pains.

Apparently this is wrong and I should love it and it will lift my mood and make me happy and glowy.

Aibu. I just this is wrong and HATE it!

YANBU but YABU OP
I used to hate all forms of exercise and kept waiting for the buzz.
But agree with doyouthinkhesaurus above - don't go to the gym, it's dull as....
I have recently started going to an hourly circuits class.
GRIM and muscles are broken the next day but YOU DO GET THE ENDOPRHINS that you've done it! Straight away and it's amazeballs.
VERY interestingly went to the indoor version as was away for the outdoor one and it was HELL - I spent the whole hour looking at the clock - outside -was not the case. SO def agree outdoor is the way forward.

HATE running but love cycling.
HATE cycling on the roads cos it's scary as (and I don't even live in a city - quite the opposite tbh) but go early morning when it's quiet and again GET THE ENDORPHINS and it's amazeballs.

TRY something outside - apart from anything else it's CHEAPER and much less dull than sitting on a machine wishing you were somewhere else...

Good luck
(usual HQ disclaimers apply, obvs)

@YaTalkinToMe

Olivia You better start putting that exercise into practise as you are going to have some MN'ers running after you with pitchforks for using the word amazeballs

S'ironic innit?
Like my use of innit, innit?

But I can outrun a pitchfork-wealding MNer any day of the week
Cos I'm on my bike.
Mwahahahahah

i love the ENDORPHINS Badger
I channel my inner SuSylvester
Yes hate the faff of showering there - when I did gym, I drove and showered at home.
But I don't Gym any more.
All about the cycling, me.

WELL DONE for going though OP.
