Just an FYI... the damage you get on impact after jumping from high places... does not count as you dealing physical damage.
(the experiment was fun, though).

Indeed, if you look at the details it says "deal x damage to enemies" (replace "x" with relevant damage type and amount), so physical would mean standard melee weapons or martial arts (I think even the firearms deal kinetic) and nothing else I dunno if the melee strike from ranged weapons counts.
I'd say a relatively easy way to do that endeavor would be to equip the DSC rep "weapon" and go somewhere with a lot of enemies as the strikes count as physical and it works better then 90% of the melee weapons in game.
And for those who don't have it, there's the shotgun that's available from the Phoenix box and the throwing knives from the mission Quark's Lucky Seven.
Especially since i am at the point where most stuff on the ground barely leaves a scratch.
Go to Nukara, put down a health generator and stand in an acid pool. Fills that endeavor quite quickly.
It would be cool if the OP's situation actually worked for the endeavor. After all, it just says 'Deal Physical Damage,' it never says you can't deal it to yourself.
But what if I am my greatest enemy. 8(...
Why don't we have the ability to slap ourselves for 1 damage via an emote. Then we could just do that many thousands or times for the endeavor.
Shield healing is easy. Have an engineering boff put up a shield generator, stand around and get hit inside the field.

Insects. As far as I can tell the insects come in groups of 3, so on the edge of the swarm you're only getting ticks from one entity, but the center its all 3. You can also manage to position yourself to take flanking damage, and can remove your armor and keep it off if you can handle the damage output. However unlike on Nukara, you get a BOFF on New Romulus who can do all the work for you. You can help them out too if you want.
But I go there because I found Nukara too slow and demanded too much attention for such stupid endeavors. There is just no chance I'd ever complete those endeavors from normal gameplay, and that continues to annoy me that they haven't been changed.
