Dedicated? You are not dedicated enough. I go even I do not want to go. I train even I have the most crap in my mind. It is often the 'agony that you think you will feel in the training' that stops you from going. Trust me, once you have warmed up nothing can stop you. If you do not even want to go and warm up, and try to push through, you are not near to being dedicated, you are lazy.
What is that supposed to be?

weight loss is a different aim to body-sculpting / toning /building
weight loss is generally more of a health statement, and really is more important than other body beautifying objectives
really if you are for body toning than a gym is the place and a PT is almost a must
overall people who is into body toning will have lesser weight issue (tho a small to medium framed individual might gain some weight due to muscle development)

Are we talking about motivation here or 'toning' (whatever that means)?

I am demotivated now because I am tired emotionally linked to issue at work. Did I stop? NO. I push through that emotional barrier, leave the baggage outside the gym and train regardless.

I am physically tired because I travel more these days. Driving and business trips. Did I stop? NO. I planned my training timing according to that schedule or vice versa and I seek gyms nearby hotels.

This month is puasa month and the gym I regularly go opens at the time I cannot go. Did I stop? NO. I change my training timing sometimes to odd hours. Or I go other gyms, beating the traffic to get there.

So don't tell me demotivated I don't feel like going. You are just plain lazy. Pull that strength, go in, smell that sweat, warm up. DO IT. Giving yourself excuses, is not dedicated. Looking for excuses is not dedicated.

Weight loss and 'toning' do not need a gym. You can do it anywhere. PT is not a must. Especially those rep counting PTs. Unless you cannot count your own reps. Just read more, watch more.

Sorry leeyen my answer was meant for ''budakblur'' but I clicked ''reply'' on the wrong #.
Good motivational piece you have there for budakblur.
I meant to say to him that if he was looking to bulk up and be muscle-bound, then the gym is the place to go, but if he's doing it for weight control, thats a different matter that will involve change of diet and lifestyle. Good input you are giving him there
