I know... that happens to all people.
What you need is a workout partner.
What gym tou go to?
Go to one that when you step in there you feel the energy to work out.

Lmao that's a hell of motivation
It's not just going to the gym and beat your body up until u can't lift a weight.
That's why you see many guys with big arms and no chest or vice versa their body it's unbalanced it also have to do with eating things that contain protein and not fat and vitamins and also there is a good supplement that helps
I have been working about a week and I feel and see the difference in my body

Cancel cable and Internet. You'll have to go to the gym to use the free wifi to stream your favorite shows while jogging or cycling.

Also when you go to the gym don't look how fit they are just focus in yourself. Just work out in relax mode like you're doing something you like. Use headphones and work out properly

Maybe save a pic as your wallpaper on your phone of a woman who's body you want yours to look like, so that you always have your eye on the prize.

Think about the summertime and you showing off to any possible men that you are interested in. That or thinking about your health down the road. A good psychological reminder is having a picture of yourself by the refrigerator and thinking of ways that you can improve your body steadily and gradually everyday either by doing exercises with a trainer or working out at home. You can even invite some friends with you at t he gym so you do feel alone.....gamer

Excellent advice indeed. My buddy gained a ton of weight and wound up sticking a photo of himself at his skinniest up on his fridge. It was the only picture on his entire fridge so he was forced to look at it every time he searched for food.
Good way to deter yourself from eating unhealthy.
(Or seem like a massive egomaniac. Ha.)

how does that motivate you to GET to the gym, though? having your pic on the gym wall?
i honestly HATE the gym ... I'd rather run from my back porch than drive to the gym to run on a treadmill ... or lift weights in my garage ... i understand not everyone can make that investment, but it's been great.
i make myself work for something i would have otherwise bought myself straight up.
usually it's a pair of cowboy boots, this next one is a kayak ... after 50 workouts of 30 or more minutes, i can buy the one i want, but not a day before ...
there are some different smart phone aps out there that work in various ways, either by setting pings, or by making you pledge so many $ per workout that you will accomplish each week. see if one of those fits the bill for you?
my best guy friend and i, we both made workout pacts for the next 2.5 weeks, wrote out our agenda
(run and abs, leg day, arm day, yoga day, etc) and we are holding each other accountable. if i don't meet my goal, i don't get to drink Pumpkin Alaskan beer for my birthday. it's only available in Texas, where I'm going to be the weekend after my birthday. I'm not going to take that chance, I REALLY want to try it ...

Creating the habit is hard. Sometimes actually scheduling it can help...put it in your calendar.

I keep an old Vince Lombardi quote in my head when I feel reluctance. It's "Quitters never win, winners never quit." That motivates me to show up 3 times a week. I'll just take a week off maybe every two months. I always like walking out of the gym better than walking in, but I'm proud of myself that I got there. Plenty of people my age either aren't motivated or they are physically unable, so I consider myself blessed!
