    Something is better than nothing. If you don't have the motivation to do a full workout, then just do half of it or 10 minutes. Tell yourself that if after you do that and you want to stop, you can without any guilt. Almost always, once I start even with the intention of stopping soon, I can't help but finish out the entire workout. If it's getting to the gym that is the problem, then do some cardio at home.. something, anything. A mini workout is better than no workout.

    I play some games on the wii. It's not as intense as a normal workout, and you just feel like you're playing/dancing around. But you're at least burning some calories :)

    I find that putting music on helps. Also I'll do some squats or crunches during ad breaks helps - at least its something

    I know, right!!?! I didn't get to do my normal workout this morning, cause me and my workout buddy went up to another town to get a bunch of wii stuff to split. Can't wait to try out the DDR and Zumba games!! Usually when we workout, I get so caught up in who has the higher score for what game, that I don't even remember that it's a workout lol. I love my wii :) Great for when you're not up for a major workout :)
