Feeling demotivated

2 replies

I've been a consistent gym goer/strength workout person for a long time. Even when i don't want to go, I go. I just treat it as something I have to do.

But I'm feeling really demotivated at the moment. Like I just can't be assed. I've not been since Monday.

Anyone else go through periods like this? I've been giving myself a really hard time over not going.

It happens @depletedlaready sometimes it's because you've got stuff going on outside the gym that means you don't have the energy for it and sometimes you just need a change. Can you switch it up a bit, try something new or move in a different way that appeals more right now?
