If you prefer to be indoors I recommend Zwift [1].

#12Gyms are not for me either so I'm always out on two wheels

#13I would say Kettlebells. I would say some kettlebells exercises like swings would compliment your Boxing training while being different. They will also take up very little space in your home in terms of storage and working out. Also, walking is outside and dependent on the weather but I would really recommend walking daily to counteract sitting.

It's hard to start but the more you get in, the more fun it is.

#17When I used to not work from home, I was enrolled at a gym 2mn from the workplace.
Would go after work while other were having drinks.
Some of my colleagues would pause around noon.
Some people can go before work and shower there.
So the commute time is essentially eliminated.
But lifting weight is the best way to be in shape. Better than just cardio. (and it also works the cardiovascular system, just a form of hiit)
But if you don't enjoy strength training, perhaps you need something that motivates you more. I don't know what that could be that would have the same effect to be quite honest.
With consistency and results, people tend to feel good and it feedbacks into them not wanting to skip the gym, instead of relying solely on pure discipline. Gotta play with dopamine and the reward system.

#20Buy your own squat rack, barbells and weights. You won't get much done in 30 mins though. Decide whether this is a priority for you or not.
