For most people their condition directly depends on how they spent their day/week/month/year, whether sleeping or sitting or walking or running. Maybe not for you.
I didn't say I'm physically inactive. I said I don't do "real sports". Just walk around, perform the occasional sprint (one of the best exercises there is), carry your basket at the grocery store instead of dragging it on the floor, do "squats" while putting things away in your kitchen -- inefficiently, one plate or pan at a time -- and you've got your basic movement covered better than most.
In the morning you'll want to consider doing some warmup stretches:

physical meditation (but not to excess; that'd be like that "running" thing).
That's your basic flexibility and such. Add in a couple of high intensity exercises (e.g. the aforementioned sprints, jumps at full strength, one-legged squats, a couple of clap push-ups, and of course pull-ups) and you've got your bone density covered as well. Oh yeah, and mix it up with stuff like pushing against the wall and yourself to mix it up (like
this).
Real sports? Just go for physical living. Walking is the most underrated exercise.

Anyway, back on topic. I don't watch real sports either, but I definitely prefer it over TV.
