496 - When Training Starts To Feel Like A Chore

from Digital Barbell Podcast Hosted by Jonathan & Blakley Fletcher

Ever been in a stretch where you’re still working out, but you just…don’t really feel like it anymore? We get it. After years of training, even something you genuinely enjoy can start to feel repetitive. Sometimes you start wondering, “Do I actually need to get more motivated, or am I just bored?” In this episode, we talk about what it’s like to lose some of the motivation to train when fitness has been part of your life for years. We also zoom out and talk about the bigger reason we exercise in the first place: health, strength, longevity, and being able to enjoy your life. Your workout is important, but it’s not the point of your life. And then we get practical. We share some ways to shake things up, make training fun again, and get yourself excited about exercising without throwing away all the progress you’ve made. If you’ve been training for years and your motivation has been a little MIA lately, this one is for you.
