Exercise or exercises

Should I say I like to do exercise or exercises?
  

Top answer

You may say either one, Ses Shin, but a native would more likely say, "I like to exercise". Welcome to English Forums.

I like to exercise or I like to do exercises. Unless you only like to do one exercise.

UltimatePedant Unless you only like to do one exercise.
In which case, it would be "I like to do an exercise".

If you like to work out, i.e. jogging, swimming, bicycling, weight-lifting and so on, you'd say " I like to excercise. (no do)
If you have a particular excercise in mind, you can say " Let's do a neck /wrist excercise together ..." (in this case "do excercise .." is ok)
