Hey everyone,
I’ve been doing CrossFit workouts for a month now. Great results, but I find myself losing motivation to workout. I guess I’m looking for people (fit or not) to keep me motivated and possibly workout once and awhile. I’m 24 I personally don’t care how old you are, just want good vibes and hard work.

    Hi. I’m looking for good vibes and hard work too. My exercise is walking, but I would do other workouts if I went to the gym. I don’t feel ok going with the pandemic. I just want to be consistent doing something. I walk as often as I can during the week.
  • Here is something I just posted on someone’s else’s motivation request, my story in short and hope it helps.

    Well Don_ I’ll tell you my story in short so I don’t bore ya! About a year ago I was 340, highest ever. Typical fun person to be around so on so forth... drank like a fish. Always been a big dude. Did some fad diets, weight loss competitions just to win money. Within that time I stayed between 320 and 330. About gave up and just continued being that guy they know as the funny *kitten* drinker. One Saturday night (drunk night) I googled fitness trainer near me. That’s when it all changed. October 12th of this year, I had a consultation with him at 317 pounds. Today, not even 2 months, I weighed in tonight at 281. There’s a switch in your head you gotta find. It isn’t easy bro, there’s days I struggle. I went from almost four 1.75’s of vodka with soda a week. Sad I know, but I ain’t looking for a pity party. You can do this brother! Find that switch and do it. I’m excited to go to the gym now and I push my trainer to push me. Don’t back down bro, go for gold even if it hurts, your body will heal with your help. And only yours... I still treat myself to some beers (ultra lights) on Friday and Saturday, but I find ways to challenge myself outside of the gym. And remember, what you do at the gym doesn’t matter unless you alter what you do outside of the gym. 💪✌️
