Ideally try to combine exercise with something you enjoy, so that exercise is the side effect. Then it becomes effortless and something to look forward to.

As an over-worker, but also someone who enjoys their job, I still find it important to make room for these other things in life (physical activities, adventure, music, art, whatever)... they give you perspective and balance in life, and without them work can start to feel overwhelming. Small details start feeling more important than they really are - and I think this is where that feeling of exhaustion can come from, because even though you might be making good progress and delivering value, it stops feeling like it without that perspective.
