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?

The only long term one I've been able to cope with is biking. About a 40km to 65km bike ride over a day. I was able to keep my speed to either hyped up music or slowed down music to keep my speed and I felt like I was doing something, not just standing in a room and the constant looming feeling of not making progress.

The other one I've tried lately has been badminton. It can be nice and competitive as well as friendly too!
