    You may not feel like it before the workout...but you will be so stoked after you finish it! The first few times you "make yourself do it", then before you know it, you've created a habit, and you will want to look for ways to work it in to your schedule. Just do it! :)

    one of my favorite quotes is the only run you will regret in the one you didnt take. I know there are days like that but challenge yourself to at least 10 minutes if you still are not feeling it so be it, but usually you will be in the groove and get it done.
    This may be the one for you today "If you can't fly, than run. If you can't run than walk. If you can't walk than crawl but what ever you do you have to keep moving forward- Martin Luther King Jr.
    And one of my sons favorites " It is at the borders of pain that the men are separated from the boys.
    Hope that helps.

    Can someone send me a picture or video for some motivation?

    You're only one workout away from a good mood.

    Train like a beast, look like a beauty.

    It's supposed to be hard. If it wasn't hard everyone would do it. The hard is what makes it great.

    Something I read that tends to put me in motion: If you can't do it for your present self, do it for your future self. Do it for the you a few weeks from now, a couple months from now, a few years from now.

    ^I don't remember word for word, but this was the gist.

    Right now, I don't really feel like working out. So what? I don't want to get fatter. I don't want to lose the physical strength that I've built up since I started exercising. And I know that if I do this workout tonight, it will be even more likely that I will work out again tomorrow, etc.

    Even if it is just 10 minutes, do it. Commit yourself to even 5 minutes. Do something, never nothing.

    If you want pics, check tumblr. <-No sarcasm. There are a lot of tumblrs for workout motivation.

    No videos or pics. Just something I know from experience.

    Motivation usually comes AFTER you start doing something.

    I don't always feel like getting up and going swimming- I just DO IT. But like magic, once I'm in the pool I become motivated to do my routine.

    So, don't wait for motivation- just get your body to the gym (or wherever it is you workout).
