High impact isn't great for overweight guys with bad knees. The worst part of exercise for me is that it feels like work. I don't mind exercise when I don't notice it happening. Getting 25,000 steps walking around Disney and Epcot was fine. Walking 25,000 steps....with no place to go, just so I am walking....is something I'll never do. Playing a sport...great. Going to the gym...ugh, hard to motivate myself to do it. Even when I feel better when I do, I still don't want to.
Most things can be turned into a habit. If you can do something 30 days in a row, eventually it stops feeling like work. That's a big "if," though. Swimming, etc is great for brain health, I merely was picking out a couple exercises that provided a wide variety of different brain health benefits.
