Motivation To Workout

I have no motivation to workout!!!!?

You probably quit because you don't have a clear plan, so you don't see results. If you aren't getting results, then you won't be motivated to stay with it.

The first step is to write down some goals.What specifically are you trying to accomplish? To lose weight? Or maybe to gain muscle tone? Maybe both of these? What ever it is you are trying to achieve, write it down. Also write down all of the benefits you will gain if you achieve your goals. Will you feel better? Will you look better? Be VERY specific when listing the benefits. Actually feel the emotion you would feel if you were already at your desired levels.

After you have your goals, the next step is to tell family members and friends what your goals are, and ask them for some support. They can encourage you to keep your promises to yourself, and also remind you of what it is you will gain if you keep striding towards your fitness goals.

Always be kind to yourself. Some days you will just not feel like working out. That is OK. Just commit to getting back on your plan the following day.

Learn about some home fitness routines you can do. That way, if you can't get to a gym, you can still get in a great workout. In fact, I do nothing but body weight exercise and interval exercise at home. I never go to a gym, but you may prefer the atmosphere at a gym. I don't. You can get a full body workout in at home in as little as 20 minutes without any equipment.

I hope some of this is helpful, but you have already started on the right track because you are looking for answers. That is a great first step. Good luck!

I have no motivation to work out?

I have this problem myself however it's just about how much will power you have. If you're not determined to get that dream body then you won't, it's as simple as that. You need to maintain a positive outlook and be determined when working towards your body goal.
I tend to find that listening to workout playlists really helps when doing it, not only does it give you a beat to work along to but it keeps your mind occupied instead of focusing on the burning pain you'll feel if you're working out properly.
I'd recommend using a website called 8tracks.com and search for "workout" in the tags. People create workout playlists and they really help to keep you motivated.
Also find a photo of maybe a celebrity or someone with the figure you're working towards and put it on your mirror, make sure you see it everyday. Possibly make a list of goals you want to achieve by a certain time for example I have a list that states what weight and stature I want to be by the end of July.
Most importantly - BE POSITIVE.

Here are a few mixes that work amazingly well for me when working out:

I need motivation to workout!?

Well a motivation factor could be to impress someone you always wish that you could, maybe that person you like is with someone but hey not everything may last forever- and when they finally break up with that loser then by all means; go for the rebound and look good doing it. Alternatively you could consider looking attractive for your future mate and consider the fact that in a relationship that you can only really respect someone who respects themselves and let's face it- someone who lets themselves go obviously probably lacks the ability to care for anything else either. Not saying everyone is like that but let's assume that is what is going through the majority of people's minds. Yes, people can be evil but hey- it's always fun to shove that dirt they threw you right back! :D


Here's a few tips... if you need them:

For starters stress can affect your metabolism. If you stress yourself out with the concern of how you measure your progress then your already on a bad start. I personally find that everyone who tries working out/ dieting will find it impossible to actually make progress when they're simply too concerned about achieving a certain goal.

Secondly I guess if your not stressed then the next esscential step would be dieting. Drinking AT LEAST a gallon of water (I hear you technically need two gallons but who are we kidding sometimes, not all of us are going to spend the day by the faucet sipping on water).

Lastly, how long are your workouts and what workouts are you doing? Certain workouts like crunches will burn only burn little fat but only build muscle. So sometimes the illusion of gaining is put off by muscle gain at the same time. Either way; doing cardiovascular workouts that affect your entire body like Running, Squatting, Playing Sports, swimming, etc. will greatly improve how you look by burning fat. You can't do just one routine and expect it to berid of all your body fat. It takes time and it takes alot of energy. If time is a problem then by all means; go to a nearby health store and check to see what vitamins they can offer. If time is not an issue then just go and do whatever, getting out of the house may not be a bad thing but remember to never follow a routine- be spontaneous and make it fun. ^,^

How do you find motivation to work out alone?

I'm having a hard time trying to motivate myself to go to the gym. I'm home from college for the summer, and I also work. When I was lifting weights in highschool, I had friends and coaches to help motivate, but it's so boring to work out alone. Any advice?
