Motivation. When you don’t feel like going?

[Reinventinganna]

I’m sat outside the gym but really can’t be bothered. I need motivation, help please!

The only bad workout is the one you miss.

Or in the words of Nike - Just Do It.

Think how fabulous you will feel when you've done. Focus on what comes after the Gym.

Go in and half arse it. Once you’ve started you might do more, if not you’ve done more than you would have sat in the car.

You don’t need to feel like it! You just need to go in anyway!

You're there now, may as well go in. Say to yourself that you'll do 15 mins and once you get going you'll probably do the full time.
Well done for going!

Once you’re in you’ll feel glad you went. Also will you lose the money if you don’t go?

Thank you. This is what I needed.
@minipie no, I pay monthly although do like to get my money’s worth.

I’m going in.

🙌

You don't have to like it, you just have to do it.
Short term pain for lifelong gain.

Did it!

Well done! I swim and the hardest part about going swimming, is going swimming. I have to bargain with myself.

"I only have to put my kit on and get there, if I change my mind once I'm there it's fine"

"I only have to get in the water, if I want to get out I can"

" I only have to swim 2 lengths, if I hate it after that I can get out"

After two lengths my body is happy, warm and ready to swim another 38! But those first two take so much persuasion.
