Yes, but even a walk is exercise.0 -
Here I something to inspire:
SparkPeople members answer: "When I don't feel like working out, I ___."
Do it anyway. (This was the most popular answer!)
Tell myself to go for 15 minutes. If I still feel bad or unmotivated, I can quit. I have yet to quit.
Look on Pinterest for motivation! (Check out Pinterest's Fitness section and follow SparkPeople's Pinterest boards.)
Ask a friend along to the workout it helps us both with accountability.
Do a heavy house cleaning (vacuuming, moving furniture, scrubbing) so I have a reason to work out.
Watch a Crossfit video on YouTube. It always inspires me. Then I get it done.
Take a 10-minute brisk walk.
Take the dog for a long walk.
Force myself anyway and feel better for it.
Go to a yoga class. It gets me moving, and I always have fun!
I sit by myself for a few minutes and think about all the things I can't enjoy because of my poor health.
Sometimes I find myself doing it just to get my fitness minutes for the month. Proof that SparkPeople works!
Work out anyway…then bask in the awesomeness!
Find something new to do! If you run then go for a swim or a bike ride. Maybe you are getting bored with the same routine.
Complain about not feeling motivated, then go do it, since I don't like hearing myself complain.
I drag myself to the gym anyway. Before I realize it, an hour is passed and I'm glad I went.
Post about your lack of motivation on Facebook, and get chewed out.
Do it anyway because this is for me.
Try to force myself to just do something for 1 minute (jumping jacks, squats, etc.). But usually I tell myself I will be happier that I did it instead of mad at myself for not doing anything.
Put on my work out clothes, lace up my shoes and go for a walk. Once I'm out and moving I find my motivation.
Do a SparkPeople workout video! They are always great workouts and I love that they are not super hard and complicated!
Remember a time when I couldn't work out, and how sad I was when I was heavier, and how I don't want to feel sad again!
Listen to some music—something with energy that I like. It's funny how the right music can make you move even when you think you don't want to, and it usually provides a mood boost, too (which is probably why I didn't want to workout in the first place).
Put my feelings aside and use logic and reasoning. My feelings then change after a good workout.
Follow an "easy" DVD and tell myself I'll do just one part of it. I end up doing it all usually.
Put on my workout clothes!
Do a workout at home instead of going to the gym.
Remind myself why I started working out and how much better I feel and feel about myself when I am done!
Do it anyway, just not as long.
Remember how easy it is to loss fitness even after missing a few sessions.
Put on my workout clothes first thing in the morning. Once I'm in them there's no reason to not work out!
Remind myself of one of Gods promises in Philippians 4:13, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
Think how good I feel after a workout! Nothing else gives me that same feeling!
Go bowling.
I go get my small weights and start toning up.
Do something light and slow, like yoga.
Start working out anyway, and then, I figure I've already started, so I may as well finish STRONG!
Put on dance music and move!
Call a friend to encourage me.
Think of all the people who can't and I go do it and am grateful that I CAN.

Smitch72, welcome!0 -
Welcome everybody! & good work to everyone who are starting week 2.
Everyone seems to be checking off the days with exercise! Aren't our bodies moving well and feeding our souls! I feel so great to be moving. Days 6 & 7: moving boxes & heavy moving/cleaning. Having new flooring installed, & I have to remove all my stuff, then put it back. 3 rooms...kitchen, living room & office. One more day of prep & packing moving out, then repeat backward starting Wednesday. Couldn't have accomplished much last year @ this time. Feel sore & strong. Ahhh...Thank you Speyder for that motivational push...0 -
Count me in tomorrow will be my day 10

I'm going to print this. You hit it right on the head with every single one of these points. I can't go my regular zumba class right now and felt pretty bummed but my gym clothes are on and I can do it later and clean my house. Wait! That's not as fun as Zumba but it will be great to get it done0 -
