Went there for the 1st time to use the facility yesterday. Walked around and "looked" at everything to see if they had anything that I wanted to use that I didn't have at home already, which includes a full Olympic weight lifting set up in the garage, a Concept 2 rower and LeMond spin bike inside plus a Crossfit power sled, battle ropes and 200# tractor tire set up in the backyard.
Watch out! Now that MFP posters have seen this, you're going to find a long line waiting outside your house.

Think about when I go home and get in bed at night how I'll feel. If I gave it my all I feel great laying there if not I feel like *kitten* wondering what more I could have/should have done. Those nights that I feel like crap are the motivation I need to push through almost all workouts.0

Generally, I don't have to tell myself anything. I like the workouts that I do. It's fun to me. But there are days when I'm feeling a little ill or lazy that I do have to mentally motivate myself. This is generally more of an issue if that day calls for poling at home. If I'm going to pole class or to the gym to lift, I already paid for that so me making sure I haven't wasted my money is motivation enough.
So for those days I'm feeling unmotivated and I'm meant to be hitting the pole, putting on a great playlists and just starting with simple spins to warm up generally help me to want to work on harder things, such as spinning aerial inverts or the ayesha.

I keep a progress journal. And everytime I go to move a weight for the second time on my AMRAP sets I make sure to push for at least one more rep than the week before. Since I know I won't grow or get stronger if I don't push for it. Besides leaving the gym completely drained doesn't necessarily mean you had a productive workout1
