Because it gives me a ridiculous rush of endorphins - whether that's because it's painful or I love it I'm not yet decided.

Because I like taking the time for me. Like how I feel after, the change in my health - physically and mentally.

Because I love being able to shop in normal sized clothing stores for the first time in my adult life. I bought a size 16 top. Yesterday I tried it on and it fitted perfectly. Less than four years ago I was a size 28.

Because it's one of the few things in this world that helps calm my chaotic mind. It's that or cock worshipping. One is a lot kinder on my knees.

Both

It's more of a mobility thing. Some call it Primal Flow. Basically coordinating your body through various movements. I guess it's a sort of a fast yoga.

Honestly, and this will sound vain AF, it's looking the mirror and liking what I see and wanting to try and look even better.

It's also progressively getting stronger with my lifts along with being wracked with guilt if I miss a workout and don't make up for it.

I don't get motivated by anything, each and every time I go to workout I'm trying to find any excuse not to do it but I know that the thought of doing it is waaay worse than the reality of actually doing it, 5mins into the workout and it's not so bad.

I guess the motivation would be knowing that the time I put in now will be time I get back later in life, being able to get around and function independently as an old man instead of wasting away.

At the moment I'm injured again, so I can't lift at all, so I have 0 motivation to do cardio in the gym.

However when I'm lifting, my motivation is 3 things, I think.

Making the number bigger. Be that the total tonnage (combined kg of the set/day), the total of a lift, the distance of a farmers, hell depending what I'm doing can even time for an eccentric movement, but it's pushing the numbers up.

Second while I'm in the gym and timing my lift, or focussing on muscle contraction, bracing, there is no room for anything else, so it clears my head. But of a mental health one maybe.

Thirdly, I actually have time to listen to music without being in a rush for something else haha.

When I was doing strongman I loved it, I used to ache every damn muscle in body. Just when you thought you was used to it and would be ok, you moved from a farmers walk to a yoke walk and hit all new muscles hahah.

I didn't need motivation, I loved it, loved the sport. If you watch the world's strongest man qualifiers, when they are in Manchester for 2020 I think, you might see someone who looks like me haha.

But absolutely you have to find a sport you love.

Pfft, I don't know. Maybe because I enjoy the working out I do. But I don't work out in the gym, or with exercise sessions or weights etc. I genuinely loathe that and find it so boring. But finding something you love is super motivating I suppose. I walk a lot, and that's my main form of working out. But I don't do it to work out I do it because I enjoy it if that makes sense?

I'd like to find some other forms of exercise that I enjoy as I do like the change in my body with weight loss. I'm thinking of pole classes or maybe swimming sometime later in the year.
