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?

Are you aware of what sublemmy you are in, lol? Or are you some kind of magical adhd-er who can actually form habits like neurotypical people do? If so, I am so, so very jealous

Oh I’m aware. Still, it’s not a complex process conceptually. It’s certainly more difficult to actually do than it is to outline but that’s true for a ton of things. ADHD will make things harder to implement but it doesn’t fundamentally alter the formula.
