At Ask the Past, we find advice from 1560 about exercising, passed along from Domenico Romoli. His advice includes working all muscles equally, reading aloud at various volumes, walking the dog and quitting as soon as one begins to sweat.
There's nothing from Romoli about abandoning your new exercise resolution sometime in mid-February, but since people are pretty much the same now as then we can presume it's a part of the package.

They also had the advantage of having to burn a big chunk o' calories in daily subsistence activities. Puts them ahead of the curve, so to speak.
