Weird thing is, I like exercising when I'm exercising, but I can't *start* exercising.

*One of my biggest problems is i feel great one day and wanna lose weight im so motivated then the next day im on the couch and feel like a potatoe*

I never thought to set super small goals like even a 10 minute walk. I was aiming too high. You are great.

I like to run b/c I think about everyone who cant walk (like my mother) and how much they would love to run, I run harder for them. I look at myself in the mirror and see this new person, and I look at old photo's of me so i motivate myself by imagining that i'm leaving my old body behind and its taking my negative past (insecure issues) with it. I visualize running for my llife, I visualize my problems right behind me and running past them and leaving them in the dust.

The fixes:
#1 develop an internal Locus of control
#2 do something you actually like
#3 set ultra easy goals that boost your confidence
#4 keep your "experience" of exercise positive

Before quarantine I LOVED going to the gym—total addict. Three months into quarantine and I’m having the worst time finding the motivation to work out at home.

Who's watching this in 2020 during Corona times ._. LOL

"Do what you like" was the biggest exercise revelation for me. My cardio was always terrible and I personally hate running... but I like boxing. Over time, I would just do some drills a day literally pretending to be Bruce Lee or Batman (very silly, I know). But nearly a year since quarantine started I've lost 40 pounds, ate healthily, and my heavy bag has never been the same, haha.

Good tips. I used a technique like this when I was 33 years old and terribly unfit and overweight. I started running and agreed to run every single day. Day 1 was 100metres. And I struggled. 5 years later I had not missed a single day sometimes running at 2:00am to fit my schedule and running an average of 47km per week. I took very small incremental increases each day and I never looked back. Thanks for the video.

I want to start exercising because it releases happy chemicals and I need to find healthier ways to feel better than smoking

‘Here’s a tip, put down the fork.”
I love working out 🏋️‍♀️ it’s so fun. I started by walking 20 mins and running a little. I never tired out my body. And little by little I increased my stamina and endurance. I was fat and I told myself I didn’t get fat over night and i wasn’t gonna get thin over night. Even if I walked 5 minutes a day, I was 5 minutes of walking closer to my goal. I went from 200 pounds to 145 in like 2 months. I stopped eating McDonald’s.

I’ve been training for a long and I never heard someone so coherent on the subject of motivation. Keep doing what you’re doing. You’re a gift!🙏🏾

Kind a lost the motivation to watch this video tho xD

[PortableKonfidence]

tip #4 TRULY got my attention: keep your experience of exercise "positive". SO MANY TIMES I've made a CHORE out of going to the gym out of punishment for feeling fat.. then I get to the gym and totally hate the exercises that I did bc it was so much stress on my body and didn't feel good.. so I finish my workout in irritation as well. I never thought to keep the experience positive and that definitely keeps me from wanting to go to the gym in the first place! you're only going to be motivated to do what you enjoy and that consists of positive vibes only. thank you for these tips! I'm going to try to find some exercise that I like and reprogram my mind. God bless.

I’ve been lifting for almost a year and I’m happy that I’ve seen amazing results, but I’ve been forcing myself to do it, I don’t really like to do it. But it’s not so bad to wear I want to quit because I feel good after I workout

[jannpial]

Honestly I like the speaker's physique. Hes not very bulky and not very petite. I cant help being fascinated by how good it is.

[djouwairiatmohamed]

I exercise everyday because it's make me feel good and give me energy to all the day !! I love it !!

[christiana]

Run in front of me and I'll run after you... cause you're cute... best motivation
