Exercise Motivation 5.5g.

Quote:...I got EM right when it came out, and been running it roughly for 7 weeks now.
My history of exercising is mainly one of quickly fading motivation. Over the last 3 years or so I've started working out with best intentions and halfway decent motivation several times. But every single time, my motivation quickly faded away, so that already by week 2 my initial motivation was pretty much gone, working out felt like a chore. That usually led to me starting to make up excuses why I would not need to work out on a given day - be it not feeling fit enough, feeling too hungry, it being too late already or whatever nonsense my mind could make up. So usually by week 2 already I started skipping workout days, and latest by week 4 the whole thing was over.
So... EM to the rescue! I've started another go at implementing a regular exercise regime in the last week of 2017, and at the same time I've run EM over night for the recommended 4 loops. And indeed EM has delivered nicely. Since using it I did not once have my usual internal dialogue to find excuses for not having to work out. When it's time for another session I'm just all 'Let's do this!!'. I've even caught myself being a bit disappointed on those days when according to the programme that I'm following I'm supposed to take a break. Hence I've not skipped a single workout day! Also, though not consistenly, I've felt pretty upbeat while working out, starting dance moves to my workout music and playing air-guitar and that sorta thing. Wink So yeah, for anyone being in the same boat - needing and/or wanting to workout regularly, but having difficulty with staying motivated enough to follow it, this sub is highly recommended...
