As above.

Paying through the nose for a gym I hardly ever use. Would like to go to get bck to my usual size 10 :D but that just doesn't seem motivation enough!

What about you?

Well at first I just used to look down at my gut and the motivation was clear. Now I actually get off on the exercise so I actually look forward to it. Plus if I slacken off my fitness regime I tend to get my ass kicked when sparring.

yep beer gut , have to fight it off so i can drink more beer :)

Scooby-loo - did you go to Firrhill?

For three days or something silly like that. I went to Boroughmuir :D

How? Did you go? :)

For 2 years, then moved to another school up the road (red blazers - cough!).

She went to Boroughmuir (sp?) <spit!> ;)

Getting motivated to go to the gym can be tough. I think you just have to focus on what you want to achieve. I usually tell myself that there will be some nice girls there ;):D

I put in a 6 year shift at the place :rolleyes:

Jack in the gym and get yourself to a rave. The most I've ever lost in one night is just shy of two stone in weight.
It also has the advantage of allowing me to eat whatever I like during the week, cos I burn it all off at the weekend.

What era are you from Scooby-loo? 60s? 70s? 80s? 90s? 00s?

I am 1988 vintage when I left skool in 6th year....

My mum was going to send me to the school with the red blazers to do my highers! (cough-cough)

I'm beginning to panic cos Im a bridesmaid at my sisters wedding and I have just seent the dress she wants me to wear :eek:

Jesus Imlach, I left school in fourth year 11 years later!

Astraboy, I go to a club in sheffield now and again called niche. It's not what I would call a rave (mostly speed garage & house) but it's open from 12 midnight till 12 noon. Excellent, dance all night and all morning then home to sleep all afternoon :D

Kenny,

What gym are you a member at? Commonwealth pool??? :D

Didn't do you much good then ... ;):p

Motivation,

Get yourself a training partner or two, if you dont feel like going for whatever reason, they will drag you there, screeming, and kicking.

We all know how you can get bored of it, and we all need a break.

I have 3 months off each year, to let my body have a rest. After my layoff all I need for motivation is to look in the mirror, its amazing what form you can lose in three months, roll on 1st Novermber.

Later Yoza(the bloater)

Hmm..firrhilliers from that era....

Colin Oulton?
Andrew Chambers?

Scooby_Loo

Personally I find that 'gym' and 'motivation' don't go well together hence I play footie to get that Beckham-esque figure ;)

Maybe it would be worth ditching the membership and finding a sport that you enjoy (if you don't already have one). I find team stuff more satisfying than going solo as you at least get some interaction.

Scooby-loo - HAHAHA - that means you weren't even in Primary1 when I was in 6th year!!!!!

Eeek ma boab!

Does this mean we are going tonight then Scooby_Loo?

How long is it since we last went? :rolleyes:

Seems i need motivating too dont it :rolleyes: otherwise i would have gone on my own :D

civictyper,

good idea, although I am tied into the contract till February :(

I used to dance a lot, I'm thinking of taking it back up again. I am also qualified to coach 5 a-side football believe it or not! I wouldn't mind playing again, it's just trying to find a local club and fitting it with my college work, with the gym I can choose the days I want to go. Same goes with rugby. :D


Yoza, I do have a gym partner. But whenever he suggests going I always manage to find a good excuse to get myself out of it. :rolleyes:

Fcuking hell I have turned into a right lazy b1tch since moving down here and all those sodding pork sandwiches! [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

imlach, don't know those peeps sorry. kenny might though, he seems to know all the neds, I'm beginning to wonder if he is one! :p

Right then Chris, you won't go on your own!

Errrr last time I was there wassssssssss, errrrrrr May I think or possibly June :rolleyes:

I know what I need, a cash insentive! :D

Get into a routine of days to go that you really will go on.

Mix your workout with classes such as spinning or swimming for a change.

I eat lunch, go in the evenings and don't eat until I get home - plenty motivation there ;)

Use a gym where it is enjoyable to go - mine has sky sports on 42" plasma screens so I can spend 45 mins on a cross trainer watching the footy on a Sunday afternoon...... and 45 mins in the bar watching the 2nd half ;) Damn sight healthier than going to the pub though!




Alternatively resign yourself to the fact that you just can't be ar$ed! ;)

LOL, this one looks favourite to me :D

Right, I have decided.

I'm going to phone up NOW and see what classes are on! Then, if i fancy any, book myself in! :D

Cash incentive ? hmmm, does this have anything to do with me buying a new spoiler? ;)

if the only way you can see your cock is in the mirror go to the gym

No. Not at all Christopher.

I'm booked in for a step class tonight at 7. Chances are I keel over and have a heart attack!

Humpty, I don't have a c@ck.

I go to the David Lloyd over by Maybury :)

Scooblo, if you hold a pen under your tit and it stays there it means you need to go the gym, if it falls on the floor you don't

simple :D

Kenny,

My sister's dad goes there! I'm an Esporta boff myself :)

Humty.

I don't have to put a pen there. I know for a fact that it WON'T stay. I take it you have conducted this experiment many times yourself. Each time your man b@@bs and belly over come the laws of gravity. Of course. :D
