I find that I have absolutely no energy to do anything besides get high after work. I go to the gym, do like 1 pullup and I am fucking destroyed, and I’m not the most out of shape person in existence despite my job being a desk job (for the most part). I don’t go out, I have no friends partially because I moved to a new place 6 months ago.

Please no ‘you don’t’ or ‘welcome to life under kkkapitalism’, only false promises.

I miss this lifestyle. I work remote now so I don't have a good way to force myself to bike far on regular basis.

You could sign up for a gym that's a little bit away. But in the winter and peak of summer it sucks and makes me not wanna go

I too once had a glorious bike commute and now wfh. If you already have a bike, buy a stationary trainer stand. Then get a bike mountable phone holder and you can then multitask while you exercise, multiplying your time. I learn Chinese while riding and organize my life.

Trainers are a few hundred USD, but the amortized cost is pennies per hour in the long run, way cheaper than a gym.
