Having a hard time finding physical activity I enjoy

I really need to increase my physical activity, but I feel like I'm doomed. My job is very sedentary, and escaping for walks is not often possible.

I've never been a sports person. I'm not good at any, and I really don't enjoy them. I'm at a work pickleball team event right now and, oof, that was embarrassing. I'm short, slow, and not competitive.

I'm NOT a morning person, so getting up and moving is a non-starter.

Gyms are horrible.

Once I get home from work in the evening, I'm exhausted and want to cry at the thought of expending energy.

My go-to activities have been apps and youtube for yoga, rowing, and weights. But, they BORE ME!

I need something I look forward to, has a low barrier to entry, is fun, not "team", doesn't have a bunch of people watching, and gets my cardio and strength done.

I hate it! I hate everything, and I want to scream!

For the crones who have had it!

This book makes me look forward to old age, honestly. The things that little old ladies can get away with are inspirational.
