Not super sporty either, but I started running and then kickboxing after a friend recommended it. I turned out to be surprisingly good at it and it's really fun. If you don't mind some bruising, I recommend it. It's not for everyone, sure, but it's intense and good stress relief.

Edit: also agree with the other responses saying bouldering/rock climbing, hiking, running. All good stuff for not very sporty folks.

I started kickboxing about 4 months ago and LOVE it! I didn’t think I’d be able to manage the classes because I have so many chronic pain problems, but the instructors have been great about modifying the moves to help me get a great workout without causing more damage to my body.
