I live 10 minutes away from a good gym...actually i'm a member. My new years resolution was to go everyday. I went there on day one, two months ago...havent been back since.

Now that you've heard the lowest level of motivation...What Motivates You? How do you keep yourself on track? Heck, some of us get to the gym and its excuse after excuse, i remember seeing people just sitting around in that nice gym...How do you stay motivated once in the gym

I know its a bit vague this topic, but i need help and i'm sure some of the lazy guys from the gym are here too and we'd all like to hear from the guys(and gals) who are disciplined and dedicated, makin it a point to follow their schedules and following their diets.

post ur pic if possible.
let us kutuk u properly.
then maybe will get u fired up to look better.

i have been going gym for 5-6 times a week probably 2-3 hours sometimes for the pass 2 months.
wat keeps me motivated is, i wanna be stronger, and look better.
simple as that...
u cant get stronger just by watching ppl workout... no point sitting around and expect to be stronger or more muscular.

get someone to motivate u...
thats a good way then. =.=

tits motivate n switch me on..
yaw el que tiene tienda que la atienda sino, sino , sino que la..

Three things motivate me:

1. The fact that I pay a lot for the damn gym fees.
2. I feel weird, agitated even, if I don't work out after some time.
3. I'm health-conscious, so exercising and eating right and leading a good life motivates me to lift 20kgs above my head.

Mind you, there are some days I think to myself, "Why the hell am I doing here? Why am I lifting 70kgs off the damn floor?" Then I shut up, do it and let the adrenaline rush take over me. One of the best feelings, ever.

I'm sick of being a weakling.
I'm sick of being a skinny ba$tard.
That's more than enough motivation for me.

Lifting heavier and heavier each week gives me a sense of accomplishment. I look forward to each session to lift heavier.

Are there sexy girls in your gym? If not then very hard to get motivated..

Speak for yourself.


Knowing how much weight i can move around motivates me best.

Thing that motivate me is my super big dummy =.=

It's this singlet.

That says "Malaysia" and at the back says "Elit Negara"




This is my motivation. TO be in the Olympics for Malaysia.

Hope can see you in next olympic~

I'm sick of being a fat ass.
I'm pay a lot for gym membership.
I'm sick of my friends always joking around bout my big belly.

To be honest, i kinda lost motivation somewhat the past few weeks. but i'm still going consistently anyway.
Its more of a habit and lifestyle now.

I know the benefits of exercise so its not a bad lifestyle to adopt.
Its one of the positive things in life that helps to build the momentum for more positive things to come.

Yeah, once it becomes a habit, you'll still drag yourself to the gym anyway.

The only thing that motivates me is that I've set a goal and I won't stop until I achieve it. Reading the posts in this thread is highly motivating as well!

I don't need motivation, it has become a habit for me, like how we use to go to tuition during school times. The habit comes only when you have the interest and the dedication, otherwise forget it, you'll be just torturing yourself and wasting your time.

1. To be strong and huge, I dream of it ever since young and I might started late but now I'm achieving it.
2. The amount of time I spent working out, diet and the cost of gym membership, I'm not going to let my effort gone wasted.
3. Silly but true, I don't like to wear shirt. A habit from young but of course I still wear if I'm going out...

Everytime you stop/pause, your body don't wait. You could even lost all the effort you did for a week in a single day, what worst is we are getting old everyday.
But do rest if there's any injury to be recover.

1) watch scantily clad Jamie Koeppe
2) watch MV like this,

WOW, Omg Omg!! You rocks!! looks at the sexy abs and nice back i think i love you

LOL!LOL!LOL!Calm down
it wasnt me,its my aim dude

motivation :
sick of being skinny
nothing better to do anyway, only takes <1 hour everyday

the mindset that motivates me... i want a nicer body! and im paying for it!
i plan my exercise, on my ipod, get on the machines and do it..
look at mirrors often to see the improvement..
try to get a few gym buddies, i think that helps

Red Alert! Red alert!
Testosterone overload!

"If you can't motivate yourself, you're never going to get results"-

well.. i paid a lot of money to buy whey, creatine, dumbells, etc..
so i got to keep on workout so i don`t waste it

best thing is to have a friend who has the same goal. That will motivate the hell outta you. But, be warned, going to the gym with a guy can lead to other gay ppl thinking that you too are gay. Prepare to be approached by them asking for your number when your friend doesnt go...

not so many ppl in malaysia have a nice body...most of them boroi and boyak...I like to do what others don't even care to do...I like to be different...so, me = like.no.other ... LOL

EAT, LIFT, SLEEP, REPEAT ∞

Abs nice only... Other parts are unmatched, not that nice also.

I wanna look like Tyler Durden.

When I first started out, it was all about physique, I just wanted to look cool and get all 'em chiqas.

During my journey it got more addictive, because I know that I can set goals and I'm able to accomplish in the gym. It feels good.

Now I train because I want to surpass the limits that my body can handle. I was born small sized. Knowing that I'm short at least having muscles not only make me feel good but I can beat the shit out of my friends when they say something stupid about me.

As for me, being tall & thin is just no fun. I wanna be big so that :-

No one cuts my queue ever again
No one calls me addict anymore
Nobody approaches me on the streets for money
I have better self-image
I don't have to wear big loose shirts & double layer clothes

And when my friends say "waa.. you got butts/biceps/etc now", that just motivates me even more !

his physique in blade trinity was awesome

he is also tall about 6' 21/2"...here's his training regime...

the word motivation is no longer exist for me. im just addicted.

Gosh!!!
When can i get to the result??
need to triple up my workout hehehe!!!

poontang! hahahahhahahaahahah

if thats you in the avatar you already look like him


Chow

nah....
i'm still not fit yet and my chest..... I NEED SQUARE ENOUGH!!!!

u need upper chest, ripped abs and obliques.
thats it. size you're more or less already like him.


Chow

ya i know....
hopefully i can make it ASAP hahaha!!!
bring it on man!!!

what motivates me is.. girl that i love.. i think she should serve better looking boyfriend than a fat belly jelly boyfriend

What motivates me is seriously very simple yet effective.

I always remind myself "No Pain No Gain".

I kept repeating that four little words in my head when I jog, especially when I am already at my limit.

I push myself further with that phrase.

and I move an inch further with every chant I make. It helps.

i think "kiasuness" is my main motivation
haha...
wont want to lose to other guys in my course...
