Usually I deal with the need to exercise by walking to work every day, but Fimbulvinter has got me out of the habit, and I find myself distinctly out of shape.
Unfortunately I am also lazy, generally short on time, have an incredibly low boredom threshold, and like eating pies.
I think the most commitment I could give any kind of exercise would be '15 minutes sometime in the evening on days that the entire evening isn't taken up by something else' (most of my activities actually leave me an hour or so afterward before I'm sleepy enough to go to bed, I think only CUTT interactives and sometimes running D&D if it overruns have the 'entire evening' flag set).
If anyone has any ideas for 'basic exercises to make me not feel so incredibly unfit (and maybe lose some of the Extra Pie Storage)' which can be done at home without complicated equipment in 15 minutes in the evening (maybe up to 30 minutes if there's enough variety / interestingness that I don't get bored and give up), I apologise in advance for the way I will inevitably argue and shoot all ideas down and fail to follow up on them but I'd like to hear those ideas anwyay :).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-intensity_interval_training
4 minutes per day of each of squats, push-ups, sit-ups and pull-ups will do the trick, for a total of 16 min. You will be too short of breath to get bored.
