Tips on working out? Hate it so much but it’s needed

Physical activity drains me so much, my adhd gets bored instantly, dyspraxia makes everything complicated, anxiety has me avoid crowds at all costs. How am I going to build a habit of working out ever 😭 any advice for me? My weight‘s normal, but I’m a sack of potatoes fitness-wise and spent the last 10 years rotting in depressive mode. I do enjoy stretching, low-intensity running outdoors in nature and the gym when it’s empty.

I just want to commiserate. I've heard folks say, "I just love working out! I feel so energized!" And I'm like, yeah. No.

I feel gross (the sweat is irritating my sensory issues) and exhausted after exercising. Then I have to drive home and take a second shower. It is a big ask.

During Covid, I was actually fairly successful with keeping up a workout routine. I did zoom classes every week through my university's gym. There were enough options that most of my waking hours there was something. I did the best with the dance classes, though. It required enough concentration that I couldn't get all up in my head. And when it was done, I could go a few steps to access my shower rather than across town.

Maybe there are some online options you could pursue?
