Picturing myself fat is enough motivation for me.

Re: What motivates you during cardio/working out?

Just the fact that I grew up a skinny punk pissed me off bad enough, NEVER will I go back! I have officially turned to the dark side.

Re: What motivates you during cardio/working out?

well I used to have a body more like brad pitt back in H.S. Girls loved it

but then I got to college and everybody was bigger so I got bigger and pretty damn strong. Started competing and decided to go for some records and shit. Set those but now I realize that i'm just overweight and unhappy(especially now i'm single). Going to get down to a more appealing weight for myself and the ladies. I'd like to get down to wear I am at about the same bf% as I was back in H.S. but by the looks of things I should be a good 20-30lbs heavier b/c of the added muscle to my frame

I think i'll look damn good and hope to piss some ppl off when they see what I look like a few months down the road

I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who can get by with no cardio. What motivates me during my workout? I'd say winning........ I'm VERY competitive.

Re: What motivates you during cardio/working out?

I never do cardio, but I'm seriously thinking of adding a little bit of cardio, I'm lean(6%bf) but I want to get a little bit leaner, I'm infatuated with the super ripped look, and cutting the carbs only works so much, I might throw 10 minutes of jogging, maybe 3 times a week, that's it. I don't need music, I'm self motivated

Re: What motivates you during cardio/working out?

I got some select songs that just get me so fired up I wanna run 100 freaking miles. I put those on my Ipod specifically for my cardio sessions. Stuff with really fast beats, shit like that. I also keep repeating to myself "six pack, six pack, six pack....", either that or "Come on fat ass, get movin!" lol!

Re: What motivates you during cardio/working out?

i almost always look at a muscle mag for pics or come on this site right before the gym and before i go to bed to keep my ass pumped. at the gym its all about my music & hot girls. keeping in shape keeps me confident throughout the rest of the day....
