You can combine approaches. I'm a "weekend warrior" with climbing, hiking etc., and my passion for those activities spurred me to train during the week on a schedule. I'd gym climb or work out at home with dumbbells, so that I could do harder objectives during the weekend.

This can be a gateway drug, and cause you to change your whole lifestyle and move to a place with such activities in abundance.

Well, I guess you don't have kids yet. Lifestyles need to be sustainable. For many, machines in the gym downstairs is the only thing that fits (many don't have that).

Why the "yet"? It's not a given that you need to have kids. Plenty of people on the planet already.

Oh, yeah. Solution is to never have kids.

Ya, that plan doesn't always work out :)
