DollarAndADream Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Man.. good call on trying to find a Gym Brother... I suffered a fall from grace to "mere mortal" status after moving away from all of mine. If motivation is a problem then a Gym Partner is a great option, but I myself don't find it too difficult. The gym for me is minutes away and I'm very convincing towards myself. For the most part, thinking: "Just go or you'll regret it like every other time you didn't" is good enough for me.

I was pretty good for awhile without a partner, but the lifts I liked to do were most effective with a good spotter. If you're trying to gain you want someone there to help you squeeze out an extra few reps... I guess those days are behind me and I should just focus on fitness/exercise. I never regret going to the gym but I don't enjoy it like I used to when I'd lift heavy. Really, I should just commit to an active hobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefan Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 Same gym as me. My times are pretty random though depending on my work schedule. Usually there around 4-5PM. Sometimes I'm there around 7-8PM though. On the weekend I'm usually there earlier around 1-3PM. I always have my headphones in and don't talk really though unless I see a few buddies. Sweet. I'm there between 6-7. Used to go with my girlfriend. She got a new job, complicated shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ddon't find motivation to be a problem. I just know I'll get better results with a dedicated spot, and someone telling me to do another rep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
