    I have a fat, lazy tomcat who is deeply personally offended by kettlebells and yoga. Also by any activity that does not result in me being at home to give him lunch and provide a lap on demand. He does motivate me to take naps, though.

    You've never been judged until you've been judged by a cat. lol

    I've got 3, yes 3 dogs that keep me walking and walking. LOL! They are 11, 5, and 2 (new guy in the house for 6 months). I forgot how active young dogs are. haha. I was already doing lots of walking with the other two. Now doing double time and love spending the time with them outside even in cold and rain. They are total hound dogs, so it is stop and go sniff with walking in between. ymebuqe42txc.jpg

    I love this thread, I love dogs, have 6 of them. I used to have young, hyper dogs in the past, my border collie & I were in Flyball together & they totally motavated me but currently mine aren't too athletic, my big guy, Grizzly needs the most exercise. Besides taking them all to the dog park most days, I take just him on my bike & walks1vi1m4d8wlde.jpg

    My cats motivate me to sleep most of the day, punctuated by short periods of intense activity for no apparent reason. 74xyrokz0yi5.jpg

    Absolutely!!! These two rascals are the best thing that ever happened to my health, we walk, run or hike at least 2 miles almost every day (not counting short potty walks). Dogs are the best! They get so excited to go out it's impossible not to get excited myself :)

    Was thinking of this thread again as I attempted some exercise with my cat pushing against my legs, getting under me and trying to eat my hair. Cats don't really approve of humans exercising... although mine likes yoga mats.

    So basically, your cats are a fan of HIIT. ;)

    Our dog doesn't like to exercise due to pain. He will, however, chase street cats like his life depends on it if we don't stop him. It's funny to me because he's constantly seeking warmth like a cat. Every winter we move his bed next to the heater and tuck him in at night when we turn the heater off.
