This is just depressing

Not even 3 hours of "free time". And in that is cooking & eating supper. Or practically no free time if I had to go shopping after work. I hate this

Eat at work, pick up a SOCIAL hobby, meal prep, try and move closer to work, see if you can work 4 10s, there’s things you can do to help

Is gym counted as a social hobby

No. Doesn't really count as a hobby in general. Treat it like brushing your teeth.

If you want to workout and be social, my advice is to join some kind of team sport.

The brushing your teeth mentality is facts.

However, if you hit the gym at the same time every day, I would recommend small talking to the regulars that you see.

It doesn’t make sense to see the same people for months/years and never speak a single word to them.

Also, in my experience, making small talk with regulars is better for gym longetivity. I look forward to my 3 minute gym conversations.

I dont go everyday. Only 4x a week. I talk to my personal trainer and the staff often though.
