You're speaking from the point of view of a person who wants to do activities, or at least an activity. For some of us, any physical activity is repellent. Personally, I hate breaking a sweat, and I sweat profusely, at any weight or level of fitness. It's why young me gave up on ballet; I was good enough to start auditioning for a corps, but nobody wants a sweaty swan. Now you have a point that putting on some music and dancing is less repellent to me than running down the street, but it's still not whatchy'dcall FUN. And I still need a couple cups of coffee, a shit and a shower first, plus of course another shower afterwards.
Once the body starts breaking down, it's very hard to get healthy again.
The best thing is prevention, and that means keeping fit.
