Mostly just asking this for a college assignment since I'm a student there, and this is the one I picked out of the twenty I came up with.

Feel free to also answer why you do such exercises, describe the last time you have engaged in physical exercise, and provide any additional thoughts.

Social dance, followed by swimming and biking, then distance cycling. Cycling is the most common one I do, followed by swimming in the summer.

To explain the distinction I'm making between biking and cycling: When I say "biking", I'm talking about lower-speed, exploratory riding; usually a very dense saturation of a smaller area, often on trails set aside for recreation. When I say "cycling", I mean high-speed, linear riding, focused on covering distance or getting from one point to another; typically on through streets, dedicated bicycle infrastructure, or highways.

For social dance, my favorite is Ceilli, then various mosh pit styles, followed by square and contra, but in terms of how ofen I do them the order is reversed.
