- Look at your log book. If you don't you don't keep a log book, you probably should. Looking back at it and seeing how far you've come can be very motivating. If you look back and see that you have not made very many gains you will be able to assess your programming and change things up. Even though seeing that your training is not really going anywhere can be upsetting getting to change things up is fun and makes you excited to get back in the gym to start fresh.
- Look up some new recipes. Broccoli and grilled chicken can get boring after a while. Looking up new clean recipes can be fun and tasty. www.cleaneating.com has a bunch of good recipes. www.allrecipes.com has ESHA food labels which makes it easy to decide if the recipe is healthy or not.
- Read these articles. I know they always make me pumped to hit the iron.
5. Because you know you can do it. You have been working too hard to not treat your body as best as you can.
6. The final piece of motivation is to have someone who has your back. I like to call them an acountabilabuddy (yes, I stole that from South Park). Tell this person you don't want to go to the gym and hopefully they will help you back on track. If they don't help you, you should probably find another acountabilabuddy.
Good luck and keep on truckin'
