Cycle commuting to work and running. Nothing else has stuck
Same here. Exercise being a means to an end such as transportation works much better for me than regimented exercise for the sake of fitness.
I did this tricking myself by telling me "Im not exercising, I'm just commuting." went from a 10 minute daily ride to 1+hrs.
Same here. I'm cheating though because I'm Dutch, so cycling is really accessible here. I don't even have a car, so I pretty much have to go by bike.
Running works for me because it's so easy to start with. For most other sports I have to go somewhere to do it or prepare all kinds of gear. For running I just change clothes, put on my running shoes, and I'm ready to go. The low threshold before I can start, and the low complexity thereafter is what made running stick and what doesn't make most other things stick.
