I enjoy it. The lifting, the shakes, the hanfuls of pills all day. It's fun.

Mostly though, I'm just not built how I wanna be built.

We all have our personal motivators, otherwise wtf are we doing? If you don't have a reason workout, you won't. Of course, there will always be a good enough reason -- to stay healthy, fit, feel good and look good. If I worked out just to get chicks or just to look good or just so I can say I work out or just so I can say I lift a certain amount, Id've quit more than a year ago. Heck, I probably wouldn't have even started in the first place. It's not even about motivation to me anymore. It's just a part of my life like eating or sleeping, and I'm ok with that.

That Alpha Male feeling of confidence, strength, and being pumped.

That feeling of being a kid wanting to be a Superhero, and looking at yourself in the mirror now you are.

Working out just feels good, being fully in tune with your body. Feeling the pump build while barbell curling, then racking it and reaping the benefits as the muscle swells.

Taking some heavy amounts of weight, and just repping it out knowing you put the work and time in to be able to do it.

Knowing that if a problem arises, you have the strength to get through it mentally and physically.


And of course when you see this guy, then look in the mirror and know that with each workout you are one step closer....

I'm not nearly as motivated as I used to be. I used to lift 5 days/week now I'm lucky to get in 2-3. Just doesn't float my boat as much. I mostly do it because I feel I have to.

Being able to bench or squat more than any juicer in my gym.
