I love exercising – most of the time. I certainly go through phases where I lack motivation, but if I don’t get out there and just do it, I pay for it later with my cranky moods and a general low feeling. I especially love getting to the gym on a Saturday morning. It’s such a great way to start the weekend and means you can be a bit naughty for the rest of the weekend.
What exercise do you love? What motivates you to get out and exercise?
I don’t love any exercise but I do run and have zumba on my wiifit which is actually quite fun. Swimming in the ocean is great too x
I actually really hate swimming in the ocean – it’s a bit scary for me. I haven’t tried Zumba, might have to give that a go soon. x
There are three key ways to motivate me to exercise:
1. Netball – With a team sport you can’t just decide you don’t feel like going, you’re letting down the rest of the team!
2. Walking/jogging with Mel (or someone else!) – It’s social! If I can exercise WHILE catching up on the goss, I’m happy.
3. Step/dance classes – It’s fun! Great music and fun moves make it so much easier to get into!

You do love your netty! Two nights a week now I hear?!?! That’s dedication! I love Step too Ally – I’m going to have to get back into that!
Yes I totally agree! Didn’t do my session today and now feel lethargic.. I know I’ll def go tomorrow though!
My Pump session was the first one in a while and I’m going to feel it tomorrow….love that feeling!!
I don’t think I have any motivation apart from not wanting to disappoint my trainer. If there wasn’t someone there to push me I would probably happily do nothing. I do agree that exercise makes you feel great and I am always happy I’ve done it when I do. Apparently, (according to Michelle Bridges) being motivated is not the key. So what is? Do you get value for money out of your gym membership Al?
I love my gym – was better when I could go whenever I wanted. Now I have child in tow, it’s not so easy. I was thinking about he PT option- do you have PT in a park? How often?
Yep, park twice a week. My back gate opens out onto it so it is perfect! Accept today when it’s wet. Our trainer has us training at hers today. Kid friendly space also.
