Who does motivate you to do physical exercises?
For me, Wlad Klitschko is the best boxer ever. I went to do boxing and now I feel myself in a good shape and healthy.

What about you, guys?

    The enjoyment and pleasure of the activity I'm doing.

    If I don't like doing something, I will not do it. Life is too short to be doing something that makes you miserable.

    I motivate myself. I'm the only person who is with me 24/7/365. No one else is going to do it for me. Once I started, the training became a habit for me. Now, I just do it. No motivation required. I just do it.

    This! I knew I liked you for a reason!

    Horses. The lighter and stronger I am, the better I ride.

    QFT. Picturing myself riding well is how I make it through sessions on the treadmill.

    Yep, this pretty much sums it up for me.
    I have set goals that I don't want to fail at. The only way I can be successful is to train for those goals.

    The Spectre of Death. I'm lifting heavy weights so I can defeat it when it tries to come for me again.

    My adorable and sexy bikini that I look like a big globby monster in. That's my motivation.

    Short term: food. I exercise, I get to eat more. There's my motivation to get my *kitten* into gear.

    That and I am liking the way my body is starting to feel. The more exercise I do the better and fitter I feel.
