When you don't feel like going to the gym...

Remember this:

I never have a day where I work out, and at the end of the day I say, "Dang, I shouldn't have done that!"

I have, however, looked at the clock at the time my class at the gym ends and said, "Dang, I should've worked out!"

So just remind yourself how proud of yourself you'll be if you get in your exercise, whether or not it is at a gym. Just a little thought for the day. :flowerforyou:

Oh, and on that note, I'm off to a Spinning Fusion class (Spinning followed by weights at the end of class.) :smile:

    Good for you! Sometimes once I get going, I feel like I can do more.

    Same here, it's like I have to make up for feeling lazy. Plus the gym was just bustling and I felt so energized once I got there. :happy: Now I have to try and go to sleep in an hour. :ohwell:
