exercise for us? (lemmy.world)
submitted 10 months ago by surewhynotlem@lemmy.world to c/adhd@lemmy.world

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?

I have a Garmin watch that you can load with exercise programs in conjunction with it's phone app. The couch to 5k running program works well.

  • It sets a schedule
  • It tells you what to do for that day
  • Guides you during the run
  • Records your progress
  • Sets a clear goal you are working towards

Other than that I listen to audio books on my run.

Which C25K app is that? I'm using one that sounds less good! Would be interested to try that one.
