I am a technology working, so I sit on my butt most of the work day, I'm curious how people have incorporated activity into their daily habits in a sustainable way?

What activities do you find enjoyable?

If I have an audio only call, I try to take it on a walk. Usually happens 3-4 times a week for 15-30 minutes.

Aside from that, similar to what others said. Sit/stand desk though standing all day can be just as bad as sitting for my back, so I alternate about ever 30 min. Yoga in the morning (I second Yoga with Adrienne). Social sports which for me are mountain biking and pickup ultimate. By far the most fun but harder to be consistent. Gym 2-3 times a week.

Also, I keep a paper habit tracker to try and establish new eating and health patterns.
