I too need to do something. It's building a habit. Never enjoyed the gym stuff but weirdly enjoyed (sadistically) a class at college where we did various things like push ups sit ups star jumps etc

The teachers would call out what they wanted

Deep down I know that as I get older I should be doing some strength work. But I can't be bothered and / or don't know where to start.

Where would be a good place to start, being realistic in terms of convincing someone who instinctively doesn't fancy the concept so drip feeding them with good starters?

Almost a "just one thing" type approach. And with an ultimate goal of health, rather than running or fitness performance.
