Vixen_catgirl Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Ive hit my 2 month mark and i can totally feel myself losing steam. It honestly doesnt help that the gym near me is such a shit hole that i could write an entire rant on it from the lack of sanitation stations to overt sexual harassment. Its easy for me to stay focused when its a session with a trainer but thats because i kind of have to keep going. But only 1 out of my 4 work outs a week are with a trainer. Any tips for keeping myself motivated? Calling myself a fat bitch in my head and replaying times ive hated how i look in my head while im working out has only been semi helpful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaNaraku Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Hm. Having a friend work out with you is always helpful. That, or just make a schedule and force yourself to stick to it. Self-discipline. Build up on caffeine or whatever stimulant you like, and just go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naraku4656 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 you need to have people with you. i've been doing it for about a year because i've had people with me. if i didn't i would have given up months ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juicy Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Treat yourself to something special after every completed week of working out. Positive reinforcement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuggnificent Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 If youve worked out for two months hell i say you deserve a lil break. Then start back fresh. I wish i had worked out today instead of come home because my family is getting on my fucking nerves. I forgot to take my green tea pill and was tired tho.

Distortedreasoning Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 one thing that worked for m was to do something everyday for at least 30-60 minutes. it didnt matter what it was or how hard you went, you just had to show up everyday. after a certain time it becomes routine and youll just go every day out of habit. but you will still hate it. thats the best i got for you. also might wanna go somewhere else. that sexual harrasment has to be such a big de-motivator.

PhilosipherStoned Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 fucking a fucking a I better do something.. I turned this canadian ... dude onto an american hiphop club producers shit earlier since he was vibing off 'my rap; or whatever and we are supposed to be doing other shit so.. hold on man I'm gonna have to check this shit. I guess I'm probably going to start getting my work out at work anyway.. so maybe it's all right if I don't do an intensive workout today I don't even know and I'm kind of nervous so.. sipping this beer it is..

Even a Planet Fitness would be fine. It is also distressing that you call yourself a fat b**ch, because you are anything but. I would suggest finding a place that emphasizes the positive, and adjust your thinking to that frame. You are not working out to get skinny, you are working out to stay healthy, in body and mind.

RainyDayJizz#35 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Are you really out of shape? Not as in asking if this is true, but if I could call you a fat fuck if I decided to do so. If you're really out of shape you'll need to get in shape before it starts feeling good. That's one thing to keep in mind, there is a point your body gets to where you look forward to a workout and when it's over you feel great.

molarbear Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 You have to figure out what part of working out turns you off and find a new way to try it I personally hate running so I ride a bike these days to get my cardio in. Another good way (also a way of self defense) would be to take up kick boxing or any other martial art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I see what you mean. There are no other gyms in the neighborhood so thats kind of why i settled on this one. Taking the train to the gym given where i live and how late im at the gym is probably not a great idea. I should look into one near my job. It definitely is to get healthy, but i grew up being shamed constantly for how i look so i think its just the most readily available motivation material that i have.

The area for resistance training is always so crowded and i hate being stared at. There are a lot of guys there who should honestly be kicked out because they just arent capable of leaving women alone when they are working out. But the gym staff can be extremely inattentive and ive seen actual fights break out over things that should have never happened in the first place. The treadmill area is usually full of little old spanish ladies so i hang around there and just run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use to work 2nd shift and got out at 10:30 and would head to the 24 hour gym and there'd be me and one other person there until I got on any sort of weight bench or machine, then suddenly 3-4 people would appear out of nowhere and ask how long I'd be on it. This was a large gym, it's not like there weren't like 900 other things they could do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an overabundance of energy, so I can't help you there. My not working out is now just due to me not caring about staying alive. However long I live from now on is fine.
