How do you stay motivated?

Re: How do you stay motivated?

I'm in such a funk lately. I don't feel like eating, im sick and tired of egg whites and chicken breast. i want cheese and pizza damn it!! I go to the gym and half-fast it, hurrying to get out of there. I feel weak and fat. I just can't seem to get out of this funk. Unusual because this time of year is when I normally spring to life.

How do you guys do it for so long? Maybe im burnt out, need a break. take a month or two off from the gym, sit around and get fat.

I dont know...

Try some other foods too. I alway am thining of shit to do. Case in point my stir fry. Yeah it has alot of sodium but it is good all else around. It has brocolli, asparagus, spinach leaves, onions, green peppers, lean steak, and some chinese seasoning sauce (ususally plain stuff or some hot stuff)

But I usually eat this

Steak
Ground beef (90%)
Eggs
Chicken
Oats
Brown Rice
Brocoolli
Asparagus
Spinach Leaves

etc

ALway think of ways to make things different, some times I have ground beef made with taco seasoning and some cheese either fat free or low fat depending on goals and cals needed, next week i will make hamburgers and use light miracle whip, low carb ketchup, and some cheese

Same thing but made different

For chicken i will always barbecue it and add in diff flavors sauce. Low carb ketchup, ff wing sauce, mustard, etc. Still eating the same thing with diff "kicks" it

Now on being burnt out. I am in it right now. Dropped a few lbs now I am just burnt out. Not from dieting just the whole thing of it. I just tyr to eat as sensible as posssible. I will go out to eat and still order decent or just make due. Soon enough I will get over the hump. What it takes for me? I don't know, just after a break from the day to day grind of it all i m back into it

Re: How do you stay motivated?

I thought about IA. Someone gave me a copy of his workout once, I don't remember who. I'm taking the rest of the month off, I havent gone to the gym all month.

There's a new gym opening by me, I may walk in there today and check it out. Maybe a change of scenery.

Definitely try hitting up a new gym it motivates me seeing different people and atmosphere .Sometimes you have to switch it up ! Watch a bodybuilding dvd it gets me pumped if your burnt just take a week off but dont get into that habit cause you'll feel more comfortable and get lazy thats what happened to me .When your coming back the hardest part is going back to the gym thats like 75% just get to the gym but when your there its on ! Listen to new tunes that'll get you pumped main thing is switch it up !

sometimes you gotta hit the rock bottom period. When you look at it, we don't make ANY money for what we're doing. Imagine being a pro bb and what they have to go throgh to get paid little amount of money, my hat is off of to them.

I dunno fit, try going to a new gym, take some time off from dieting and training..start doing cardio etc.. If I was you and knowing your bodyframe I'd stay lean year long. Who cares about strenght and all. Look good, be smart, stay healty injury free thats what I care about.
