Exercise is hitting. My brain gives up way before my body does. Even when I try and listen to music or watch shows while exercising, I just can’t keep at it.

Has anyone found an ADHD friendly way to exercise?

    An actual bicycle. Constant change of scenery and not getting hit by cars really keeps me engaged.

      100% this. Biking is such a game changer. I’ve never enjoyed any physical fitness effort as much as I enjoy biking. Running hurts too much for me to enjoy it but point is, doing something outside with changing scenery keeps me in the zone. Plus if I ride out 10 miles and get bored, I have to ride 10 miles back home.

      I’d also recommend group fitness classes. If there’s an instructor telling me what to do, rather than me trying to self-motivate, I work out much more effectively and enjoy it more.
