Getting in Shape

Looking for motivation?

Hopefully this article doesn't offend any of you and that you get the drift of it. But when my FI and are slacking really bad on working out or eating right, we read this article and it is a serious slap in the face and makes me want to run to the gym. It's from a body building magazine so it's geared towards men but if you need motivation it will certainly help (at least it does for me). Althought I've had some people read it and just think I'm crazy. You've been warned! Hope some of you find it a little funny AND motivating like me.

Re: Looking for motivation?

  • I love T-Nation. 

    I love this part especially:

    "You want to know what it is we do? We overcome. We're too busy to train, too, but we overcome. We're too busy to prepare healthy meals and eat them five or six times a day, but we overcome. We can't always afford supplements, our genetics aren't perfect, and we don't always feel like going to the gym. Some of us used to be just like you, Bob, but guess what? We've overcome.

    I haven't finished the article yet, but thanks for sharing.

  • Glad you ladies liked it! I read it every so often when I'm being lazy and it kicks my butt in gear.
    And Raynes, I love that part. Makes me feel good about "overcoming" even though it's hard to do.
