I have always done some kind of work out in my life, however, as of the last two years i’ve stopped caring about it and had no interest in it. I did swimming from 4 to 14 years old, and from 14 to 16 i went to the gym pretty constantly, but now as an 18 year old i don’t do anything. I’ve found myself missing swimming, but mostly just giving up on the gym because i stopped finding enjoyment in it. However i am well aware that i should probably do something, it’s just very hard to want to do it in the first place. I don’t really care about being strong or handsome, but i’ve always been overweight since i was a little kid and even tho i’m on a diet, i struggle with losing weight and the advice is always “go to the gym”. How do YOU manage to find motivation to work out?

My local community center has a child watch room where you can pay $6/child for an up to 2 hour block. You must stay in the building. So on Saturday mornings, my wife and I drop the kids off at the child watch room and hit up the gym for a workout. We help keep each other motivated, and we get 2 hours where our kids are stream of consciousness word vomiting at us. Wins all around.
