exerexia

The sincere and determined effort to avoid all unnecessry exercise.

I work hard enough all day. My exerexia prevents me from taking a brisk walk with my honey after work, even though my honey is a cute Beagle.
Or:
Person #1, "Do you want to go far a hike through the park when you get home?"
Person #2, "Um ,no. I have exerexia."

Exerexia

The sincere and devoted avoidance of all unecessary exercise.

I work hard enough all day. My exerexia keeps me from going for a brisk healthy walk with my honey at the end of the day, even though my honey's a really cute Beagle.
