Trying to do a set amount of exercise games in VR helped me get more fit. I’m not good at sticking with something but pretty great at playing the same sections of a video game telling me what movements to do everyday.

Just having things to do/try as exercise everyday was more fun/rewarding for my brain… But I had to make sure they were exercise too.

Then I’d do more as I got healthier, and eventually I attached weights to my wrists and legs.

But if you’re a mechanic you might want to ease into it, because of your back.
