He says, "I have, of late, but wherefore I know not, lost all my mirth, foregone all custom of exercise, and indeed, it goes so heavily with my disposition that this goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory." He is, of course, telling them what they want to hear. We know that he has not foregone all custom of exercise at all; later he tells Horatio that he has kept in continual practice. This is part of the antic disposition intended to bamboozle the simple-minded Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.
"I have of late, but wherefore I know not, lost all my mirth, foregone all custom of exercises, and indeed it goes so heavily with my disposition that this goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory."
"I have of late- but wherefore I know not- lost all my mirth, forgone all custom of exercises; and indeed, it goes so heavily with my disposition that this goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory; this most excellent canopy, the air, look you, this brave o'erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire- why, it appeareth no other thing to me than a foul and pestilent congregation of vapours."

Actually in Acts I and II of Hamlet, Claudius seems like a perfectly reasonable guy. In Act I he gives Hamlet some pretty reasonable advice about not mourning too much, names him the heir to the throne, is courteous, wise and decisive--an excellent king. In Act II we see him trying to make enquiries into the reasons for Hamlet's "transformation" as he calls it, while hearing of the success of his diplomatic solution to the Fortinbras problem. In all things he appears the good king and concerned stepfather.
