How often do you exercise?

I exercise daily. I have a "body part" day that includes legs, abs, arms, etc. I just make it fun & if I'm not feeling the best, I allow myself to do light exercises. If it's really a bad day, I practice self-care & focus on other areas with stretching. I also take 2 to 3 walks with our dog on our acreage. I have some videos as well as Youtube Trainers that I follow to spice up my routine. My tip is to not make it seem like work :) Do you practice self-care as well in your exercise routine?
 
I am 83 and stretch out every morning for 25 minutes or so and then during the day for short periods. Due to hip replacement damage to my bodyl, I can not do streneous work. I exercised at gyms and walked and danced for decades. .
