Comment on Ask HN: What's your best advice for someone turning 30 today?parent

I get where you are coming from. The idea of finding exercise that you enjoy doing is based on the thinking that you're more likely to continue to do something you enjoy.

Unlike cleaning or doing taxes, there are lots of very different ways to exercise. And most humans are conditioned to enjoy some form of exercise. It's likely you can find some activity that will give you a nice dopamine hit to keep you encouraged.

Plus, you never know what you might enjoy until you try it. I never thought I liked sports until college, when I discovered a love for playing tennis, squash, and flag football. I still hate watching any of these sports on TV, but I do love playing them.
