I started working out because I was super weak and just had a kid, and I realized there was a legitimate risk that I wouldn't be able to pick up my own child, so I started doing some strength training and holy crap this is amazing. Then I went back to college and lost my workout schedule, but after college I started running the following super smokey summer and didn't make much progress, but this summer I've picked up biking and I'm currently up to about 3 miles of extremely hilly biking every day.

I seriously forgot how fun biking is, and it's also nice just how much healthier I feel from the regular fitness

Right? Just getting up and doing something is so important. Whatever works to keep people from being sedentary.

Human beings aren't meant to be sedentary. Absolutely get moving in some way or another!
