I looked through the forums and although there were a few about health they seemed to mostly be about eating problems, not exercise, so im not sure where to put this 
First of all sorry for the long story, im not sure why i feel compelled to give background information so just skip to the bottom for the point
Fitness is very important to me. My father used to be a powerlifter and unfortunately injured his back squatting and currently has a lot of health issues right now, such as being overweight and Colitis(i have no idea how to spell it, its a disease that involves the body's immune system attacking the large intestine), and I dont plan on letting myself fall out of shape like he did, although hes working on getting into shape now(not going very well for him tho :/). He got me into weight lifting and i really enjoy it.
(now for the point of this post)
What i do not enjoy is any type of aerobic exercise, which i really need to do since i have no endurance while running or swimming and although i dont have any trouble maintaining my bodyweight i definitely will later in life if i dont learn to like running or some other form of aerobic activity. I was wondering if anyone else has an interest in fitness and how they motivate themselves to do exercise that they find boring or unpleasant. I think the main reason i hate running is because its difficult for me, which it always will be if i never do it
the only idea that i thought of was doing it every day and each day adding one more minute, starting at 5. i'd imagine that if i did that i'd get impatient to do more and make it more difficult... not sure why i think that but it seems to make sense to me
