How Do I Make Myself Exercise When I Hate It?

from The Begin Within Health Show Hosted by Nate Sleger

If you've been avoiding exercise because you genuinely hate it — the feeling, the gym, the sweat, all of it — this episode is for you. And before you tune out, I want you to know: you are not broken, you are not lazy, and you are not uniquely undisciplined. You're normal. But here's the thing — if we don't address it, it gets harder. In this solo episode, I'm sharing the mindset shifts and practical tools I use with myself and my clients to go from "I hate working out" to actually showing up consistently. In this episode, you'll find out: Why does my brain keep telling me to avoid exercise — even when I know I need it? How do I make myself exercise when I hate it, without relying on motivation that never shows up? What's the one question I should be asking myself instead of "do I feel like working out today?"
