Motivation

[Snoochies]

What do you do to keep motivated?

I have great motivation when I'm not doing anything but keeping it going on a regular basis seems to be a weakness for me.

What keeps you all motivated or what do you do to stay motivated?

I have a pic of my self as a fat boy. well lol I don't have a pic but If I don't go the gym for a couple of days I actually feel bad as in I can feel getting unfit.


Right now Im going through this stage as I have tendonitis in the right foot and problems with the left knee so I really can't do much training. I feel unfit.

i think to myself... (to acheive my goal i need to put in this hard work)

Don't set unrealistic goals.
Most people set themselves the goal of being the best they can possibly be, and give up because it all becomes too hard.
If you set yourself the goal of doing 20 minutes solid exercise 3 times a week, that is the minimum recomended for good health - and you can always add extra if you feel like it.

I have a 2 year old son. And my father was my age (36) when he had his first heart issue. This has kicked me into action.

I try and go to the gym twice a week and run at least twice a week as well. I don't beat myself up if I miss a session though. I've also started riding my bike to work (weather permitting) and that's a great way to get the heart rate up.

The hardest thing is going for the first time, or going back after a break. Once you get back into the routine - especially once you start seeing results - I find that motivation takes care of itself.

I have to be fit to play soccer, and pre season is hell when unfit, so i keep myself pretty fit all year round.

Infact i need to keep myself very fit cos im not a very good player, but i can run all day, so its very much to my advantage to be fit.

Going to the gym gives me an excuse to get away from the missus.

my father died at 39 from cancer ... I try to stay fit and healthy to reduce my chances of going the same way and leaving my 3 kids fatherless...

That keeps me very motivated.
