  • It’s understandable if you’re out of breath after a short amount of time when starting out. You’re only a few months in, and it takes several months / years to condition yourself mentally and physically. Assuming you don’t have a medical condition, start slower, and try to find a pace that is manageable for longer durations.

    As for finding an exercise you enjoy, that is personal and depends on your circumstances. I started with running, then tried rowing, and finally settled on cycling. There are even more options for cardio, like hiking, swimming, jumping rope, dancing, etc. You just have to try them out and see which one is the most enjoyable. Try as many cardio exercises as you can, and you should find yourself enjoying one more than the rest, even if they all suck. If you do that, you can focus on that exercise for a few months and see what kind of progress you make. That approach worked for me, and maybe it will work for you.
