What types of physical exercise do you enjoy the most?
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.

Climbing. Go three times a week and it's just fun and challenging. Gives me a chance to get off my phone and just enjoy the activity.
Do you do rope climbing or bouldering?
Indoors or outdoors?
Mostly top rope these days but I'll boulder if my partner isn't available. And indoors, much more available.
There's a bouldering gymn near my house and my fourth-grader has gotten really into it. She would rather swim when the pools are open, but once the weather gets colder we'll be there every weekend. I can do all of the beginner tracks and most of the 0-1s, even some of the 2s, but the difficulty goes up to 16 and the climbers who do anything above 5 seem to be thinking about the sport in a way I cant even visualize.
I’m no where near a pro…intermediate at best. I generally climb v-grades around 7-8. I know this feeling you’re talking about very much. Sometimes I revisit where I was, and where I’m at, and what once felt impossible to even imagine now just feels intuitive (of course it’s all relative, as anyone climbing v10 and above look like magicians to me). It sort of just happens naturally through practice and experience. Learning a skill is so wonderful!
