    Does it have to be lifting or weight exercises? I can get myself to do them because you oughta but it was always a slog, I'm much more inclined to cardio. Running's probably the easiest as far as equipment goes and you can probably just do it outside. Me personally I'm obviously for the bicycles, allthough that tends to get tricker with the routes, space for equipment and so on.

      Lifting is much better for people with ad(h)d, but for nuerotypicals, I think running and lifting have similar effects on mood.

        That's very interesting. I have adhd and I've found that the only kind of excercise that I can consistently do is weightlifting or some kind of game. I've been trying to work in cardio though

      I've mostly only done cardio my entire life and the only time I ever really got upper body workouts was doing construction. I could definitely use more cardio lately since I mostly just walk a lot, but I think some lifting wold be beneficial for my mental health.
