Cheap, do not take up much time, and aids weight loss. Oh and doesn't need extra equipments or arenas or something.

I'm talking about hobbies, people. Not just exercises. Actually something that is actually fun. Running, not eating, are you kidding me? Wheres the fun in those? "What's your hobby?" "not eating". Brilliant. Running while for some of you is fun, is a form of torture for me.

[Cosytoasty]

The problem with something that doesn't take up time is that you dont burn any calories...

Football/soccer is an amazing workout and great fun and cheap, you only need a ball and an open space. Cycling is also amazing fun and you only need a cheap bike. The only thing i can think of which doesn't requure any equipment would be running... but unless its freerunning its boring asf.

[Asker]

For football i need to go join a Team. Takes time that i don't have. Cycling is really dangerous and hot here. Jogging makes me wanna kill myself out of boredom

[Cosytoasty]

Well there are no shortcuts to weight loss lol, you can't trim down by sitting down.

If you really cba to go outside buy a stationary excercise bike and use it while u watch TV/play video games.

[dogbert444]

Walking, jogging and running. My reasoning:

3,500 cals is about 1lb in weight. Going for 1/2 hour jog could burn 175 cals. So in 20 days, that's 1lb. Not a lot, but it IS sustainable. All it takes is that 1/2 hour a day.

Add a simple change in eating habits, and you can double that weight loss.

[Asker]

I hate jogging

[dogbert444]

Only thing you can do is change your eating habits. Remember:

Cals ingested more than cals burned = weight gain

Cals ingested less than cals burned = weight loss

Loseing weight AND keeping it of requires a lot of effort over a long period of time. How you do it, or whether you do it at all, is up to you. We can tell you how to do it, but you have to walk the path. We can't do it for you!

If you have no time to exercise or do not like the concept of idle exercising, then you can just do a lot of housework, yard work or field work, and office work the hard way. You can also commute by bicycle to places or mow the lawn with a mechanical, man-powered mower. But the most important thing with weight loss is the diet.

[Asker]

Thank you for giving a thoughtful answer

[BellePepper]

Yoga, hiking, swimming, gardening, housework...

The list is pretty endless. Do you have anything that you're maybe already into that you can make more athletic?

[Asker]

Everything is impractical cause i need equipments or need to go some where. Going some where = time consuming

[BellePepper]

You can do yoga at home with youtube videos...

[Asker]

Yeah think that's what I'm gonna do... Although it doesn't qualify as a hobby for me...

[BellePepper]

Maybe it can be a new hobby :)

[Asker]

Lol I'm not interested enough. Also, I tend to get bored easily when doing the same thing everyday

[BellePepper]

Good thing youtube is a big place.

[KittieCat]

@Asker You seem rather unmotivated to lose weight or be healthy if you don't want to do any form of exercise or be active. @BellePepper Gave some good advice that was basically shot down with "lol nah".. Maybe find your motivation first :/

[Asker]

@KittieCat why do you think I asked this question? I'm looking for something that is also fun and burns calories. I actually took BellePepper's advice and picked up on yoga again today, since i still have the app. But running? Lol you bet I'm not motivated. I hate running with passion!

[KittieCat]

I mean she didn't even mention running but okay. But the point being that sometimes *especially when losing weight* you're gonna have to do things you don't particularly like. Even if you don't like running any of the other things she listed can be fun if you put in the effort and make it fun. But you'll never know till you try

[Asker]

@KittieCat yea hers is the opinion that hits the target of this question the closest. Despite all but yoga not possible to implement in my life right now. But everyone else, yes, every single one gives such generic, uncreative answer that tells me to fucking go running. If I were to do that, it would be to hunt some morons down. They don't even bother to understand the question. I know weight loss is hard, that's why I'm asking for suggestions of things that could be fun while burning cals. Everyone keeps saying running! Motherfuckers.

[BellePepper]

I hate running too. It's a huge waste of time and boring af

Good luck with the yoga!

[Asker]

Thank you!

Yes, not to mention pain on the knees and boobs!

[BellePepper]

Preach -_-

[capncool]

Salsa dancing, a lot of fun and you'll sweat buckets doing it

[KittieCat]

I mean eating healthy should be a big one... But yoga, running (jogging, sprints), strength training, HIIT, kick boxing, biking, playing sports, etc etc

[madhatters4]

well sports are always good way to go. yoga is pretty cheap especially if you do it in the home

[madhatters4]

but just keep in mind that losing weight isn't usually a lot of fun. it requires discipline and usually some form of exertion of energy which may not be in a way you want to do it

[Asker]

That's why I'm looking for suggestions of activities that are fun. Yet cheap and not time consuming at the same time. Instead people basically just tell me to torture myself. I don't mind doing some physically activity that is also fun. Jogging, HIIT, and the rest... More like torture

[outmyroom]

Jogging you can do that anywhere and u can listen to music too

[Asker]

I never get why people love jogging so much.

[outmyroom]

I mean it burns calories and it's pretty fun because you can listen to music, audiobooks etc.

[Asker]

It is NOT fun lol. You can also listen to music in the shower and it's a lot more fun than running

[outmyroom]

That's true but I'm just saying its a great way to say fit

[Jxpxtxr]

Cardio, like cycling, jogging/running, Nordic walking (if you're not very fit), etc etc

[elew4too]

Pushups and situps help since simply having more muscle burns fat

[Xfitchick]

Running and walking. If you a bike: biking. If you can swim for free: swimming.

[Allebana]

I only like rope jumping lol all you need is a cord and a bit of space

[Splintercell]

Change your diet to fish, fruits and vegetables. Ride your bicycle up hill. When you go places like malls or buildings take the stairs. Go on walks while walking your dog.

[Kuraj]

Not eating.
It's really cheap, in fact it makes you some money.

[Asker]

Also not healthy. And not a hobby

[Kuraj]

Yes, but it is the best way to lose weight, and it is not unhealthy.
If you have problems with weight, your current eating habits is what is unhealthy.

Not sure what you want to hear.
If you could lose weight with a hobby that is cheap, "fun" and "doesn't take up much time" then everybody would be fit af.
If you think some physical activity is "torture" then well, enjoy remaining a fatty.

[Asker]

Pls refrain from answering if you don't really know the answer.

[OrdinaryGentleman]

Running lol dude... this should be easy as pie. Or simply counting calories.

[Asker]

Next person to say running better run for their lives cause I'm gonna kill him

[OrdinaryGentleman]

You could try jogging instead :3

[Zanecyber]

i like to play 21 with my friends its fun shooting hoops and its cardio at the same time

[jcoldstream]

Staring at food without eating it.

[Asker]

Not funny.

[jcoldstream]

Posting "not funny" on opinions that aren't funny is a good hobby for you.

[Asker]

So is waiting un funny comments. My god, look at your age!

[jcoldstream]

If you still haven't found a hobby, what about hanging around on web sites making everybody think you're a prat?

[Asker]

Really lady. I'm in a bitchy mode. Don't. Try. Me. Be the mature one. Instead of saying things a teen would.

[ChasteHubby2008]

Running. Bicycling (not cheap to buy the bike, but cheap once you have one). Calisthenics.
