Maybe try going to like exercise classes with friends? That might make it more fun for you.

Right before your period is the luteal phase! This is a period of a lot of hormone changes so you feel bloated, a whole lot of emotions, several different other symptoms, but especially fatigue both mental and physical. I’ve tried going to the gym during this time and it was just unenjoyable (when usually I love the gym)

I usually find the gym fun but during this time I’m usually too physically and mentally tired (we did it tho)
