Activity might be the most important thing.

Re: people exercising because they're healthy enough to do it- I think that is sometimes true, but sometimes they just don't want to. My husband was disinclined to exercise (and never has in our 22 year marriage) until I dragged him out to play pickleball with me several times. Now he's hooked, and plays 3 days a week. He's lost weight and is feeling better- yay!

Exercise just for the sake of exercise is always hard. People need to find something they love doing that just happens to include physical activity. I'm glad your husband found that something!
