Motivation Needed

Motivation Needed

            So you’ve decided to start lifting, like many people you had a reason to start lifting.  Maybe you want to get stronger, maybe you want to look bigger, and maybe you just want to look more attractive.  Whatever your reason for weightlifting, you needed a reason, a motive for starting.  And to continue to weight lift you need to continue to give yourself motivation in the gym.  If you give yourself motivation to start, like a goal to lift a certain weight, well what happens once you reach that goal.  You need to continue to give yourself goals or else you have no motivation to continue to lift. 

            Sometimes people don’t even have motivation to start lifting.  This can be the biggest problem because some people believe that they don’t need to lift or that all the work would be too hard so they just don’t exercise at all.  You need to find something in your life or on your body that you want to change, maybe you are small so you want to get bigger, maybe you are fat and you want to get small, or maybe you just want to feel a sense of accomplishment so you start to weight lift.  If you haven’t started to weight lift yet I want you to find some sort of motivation to get you to start.  Find anything that gets you ready to lift, anything that you want changed in your life that could be fixed with weightlifting.  Find anything that gives you the drive and motivation to lift and continue to lift, to push through to always get that right number or reps and right number of sets and correct number or reps.  To push you to always try for the hardest amount of weight that you can possibly do.  Don’t stop and know that all of the work that you put into your training will be shown in your weight and your growth. 

            You need constant weight lifting motivation because if you don’t have motivation then you are just wasting your time in the gym and you feel like you are wasting your time and that there is no purpose for you in the gym.  Always set goals and weights that you want achieve while lifting and work your butt off to get to that weight and never stop setting goals in your training.  Never give up never surrender and you will be successful.  Remember, we’re all in this together, keep your stick on the ice.
