What to do if you have no interests?

It seems that everyone has some crazy stuff on the interests section of their CV, such as being elite-level at playing an instrument, being elite-level in a sport or just some very unusual interest that makes them stand out. 

Personally, I have worked full-time and conducted internships throughout university so my spare time has been very limited. Whenever I am free, I just enjoy hanging out with friends, going out to eat, hitting the gym or watching a movie. Is anyone else in a similar situation and if so how did you approach the issue when it comes to your CV?
