what motivates you to go to the gym?

I think I'm addicted at this point. I have a hard time taking a day off.
I want to be the best that I can be, right now, I guess that's what motivates me.

 

Habit, I suppose

And because I go with a friend usually it makes it a bit of a laugh, which helps massively

 

i love training, when i miss a day i sort of get paranoid, i love the smell of the gym, the atmosphere, and right now i am preparing for a fight, which gives me extra motivation.

Now that im training agian u go in there and im in a MMA gym with pics of guys like Renzo Gracie and Matt Serra around it motivates u especially when ur like me I got dreams of being the Featherweight Champ in MMA which should be the goal of every athelte to reach the highest point possible. When im having a hard time finish I always vizulize myself in a fight with current champ Urijah Faber of the WEC just beating my ass in my home state with the belt on the line while I can see my team,my mother,my niece,my girl,my best freinds screaming all kinds of **** to help me then I pull a win out of nowhere to accomplish my ultimate goal. If you want it badly enough then u will get up go the gym even if u gotta walk there and bust ur ass to get a good workout. Took me a year to find myself agian and get back that motivation I was lacking in combat sports. I got it back I got a dream man thats my motivation dreaming of a nice belt to hang on my wall next to pictures of my heros like Couture,Mosley,MAB,SSR,RJJ,Ali,Henderson etc.

 

What motivated me was the thought that the more I went the better I'd get and the stronger I'd get. Also my friend would come with me sometimes and that was the only chance we got to slug it out with each other like enemies.

 

I want to make the 2012 Olympics.
Every day missed, I feel bad about, but I miss no days by my own accord, the army ****s **** up.

 

i go because i love going. its fun learning everything, its a great work out and all the people there are cool. i also get a lot of anger out in the gym and if i stopped going i might seriously go insane sometimes at work n **** like that, it calms me down. i can be very high strung without it

 

I have just trained 5 to 4 days a week for years now it is part of my life.

 

Habit,hobby and always trying to look my best.

 

I dont actually belong to a gym, but I completed the adidas half marathin yesterday, was getting up at 5am most mornings before work to go running, it was the eventual goal of doing the marathon that motivated me, got some off road races coming up, so will continue training for those. I think it becomes habit in a lot of people, plus I get a ****ing great natural high from training.... :good

 

To prove every one wrong and to correct the mistaskes I did in my last fight

 

50% the addictive power of boxing
25% the addictive power of exercising
25% a good time with the friends I've got there

 

I want to win, I like punching things. And I pretty much just love that ****, all the work and everything in the gym I like.
