Hey guys just a question how do you stay motivated? i mean when you know that you need to go to the gym or you dont want to or eating, anything about a bbders lifestyle that can get you down, how do you stay motivated??

look at pictures of my favourite bodybuilders (johnnie jackson, franko columbo, dave henry). that always gives me motivation to hit the gym

phew, yea thanx sometimes its a bit daunting, coach was INBA Mr Olympia last year and whether he means it or not he isnt the most resourceful tool, nor the most motivational, in short one very bloody hard taskmaster (the kind that you would enjoy NOT seeing everyday)

but i guess everybody on here does some things that we would rather not do (ie. train when we dont want to, not eat what we want, etc etc) somebody once said that the greats do this without a moments pause, THAT is the price they pay for glory.

i just remember all the other idiots i see in the gym...how they think they are the sh*t but they really aint sh*t....sometimes i just lift to be better than them....that gets me motivated. just not to fall behind them. if your bigger than me and you put in work...thats one thing, but to come into the gym and talk on the phone and joke with your friends all the time, then get under the bench and do a bullsh*t rep of 225. then think you did something. that pisses me off. damn im getting mad just writing about it......im headed to the gym right now...

when i want to stay motivated...i just think how bad and guilty i'll feel if i dont go to the gym

**justlift32** · 12-05-2007, 09:53 AM

listen to some music maybe a video of a bodybuilder. and i really just think to myself, if you don't go today or you don't eat... your only preventing yourself from your goals.

think about how excited you were when you first started that new diet or that new routine, and how excited you were about your goals. then think about how not eating or not training will set you back even further...thats motivation.
