At what point did working out become routine?

[Soundwave]

I only started taking weight training seriously a couple of years ago and I never thought that I would get to the point now where I'm going three times a week. It's to the point where I don't even think about it, it's just a part of my life now for better or worse.

I got to thinking about this because one of my coworkers said she was going to start doing eighty squats a day up until Christmas (she made this pledge about two weeks before Christmas), so I would her every day and ask her if she did her squats and she said no

I avoided it for YEARS. Regret it immensely.

After I graduated...I started going hard. I literally lift/run/play bball.....or something 7 days a week. I can't imagine not doing something for an entire day.

When I signed a 3 year contract(bally's) at 18, to pay the gym $30 a month



Might as well take advantage of it

I signed up for NYSC back in 2008. I went very sporadically in 2009 when I signed up for a personal trainer but didn't start going regularly until 2010.

I got that discount through my job now, and they actually offer money back if you go enough times during a six month period ... I have to look into that.

I've been an athlete since junior high, so it's pretty much always been routine.

Played sports all my life, started running marathons after I graduated college.

Proper workout plan is so important for health and fitness. I have joined gym since 5 years, at the initial stage, I felt problem in making routine. But now I can't skip it. This routine gives me physical and mental fitness. It boosts energy and also improves muscles tone.

I literally forced myself into a morning routine. I knew that i wouldnt be able to go every evening because if we are busy at work (85% of the time), i could easily stay until midnight and any prior plans would fall out the window.

Every night, I make sure that my formal clothes are in the car just so when i wake up all i have to do is eat light breakfast and drive to the gym. From there i go to work. Even when i have had less than 4 hours of sleep, i still go!!! I have become so used to going that i feel like crap when im out of town and there is no place to workout nearby

3 yr varsity and played AAU bball for a min. I got a huge ego ( ), so I always want to look the best. Working out helps so many things. Hairline, skin, stress, sex, fitted clothing, etc.

I started lifting in college... prob put on a good 20lbs of solid lean mass, we ate good freshman + sophomore year brehs. I had a bunch of buddies I lifted with so it was easy.

Junior year I moved back home and got busy/lazy. Senior year same story. Super senior year same story. Finally started to work out by myself after I got my first job, only took time off after a serious accident.

I'm trying to get into a similar routine with cardio and healthy eating. Grilling up some brussel sprouts right nah
