I need a motivation...

Well. Since I broke up with my girlfriend I've had no real motivation, and for the last week or so, I've lifted a few weights, than just... Stop... It's not that I'm depressed, I'm actually happy.

I started working out a lot more, back when I was only friends with her, and wanted to be dating her. So I worked out like crazy, and ate like crazy. I got fast results.

Now, I'm sitting on this computer all day saying to myself "5 more minutes".

I need to be motivated! Give me some ideas. :p
 
Get a New gf ;)
 
Get big, and then they'll all want you. And you can fight them off with your new muscels. (yes, muscels once again: evo)
 
lifting for anyone but yourself always turns out to be a total disaster. You got to want that body for yourself and not for other people. My motivation is soccer coming up in the fall and how everyone is going to tremble at a soccer player who can bench 260 pounds.......
 
If you keep working out, you'll be ready for the next girl you like and want to be with. Otherwise, you'll say sh!t !, I shoulda been working out all this time.
Do it because it makes you feel strong inside and out.
 
Fitwes16 is right. You have to lift for yourself and not for anyone else. Lift because you know its good for you and you want the improvements. I know its hard after you and your girl split. when that happened to me, My friend kept me working out and for a lil while i would just get through a workout through anger. not the best but it worked, at least now however i'm working out once again for myself. set a personal goal for yourself and work towards that. fitwes16 is also right about soccer players that bench 260. but by the fall season i hope to be one of them and i'll still run 2 miles under 12.

Give it some time and work out cuz you know in the long run you will thank yourself. If you have a workout partner make sure they force you to work out. Soon you will be in the right frame of mind again.

best of luck
 
Every once in awhile I have problems with motivation because I'll plateau or something. But I'll still force myself to go and workout. There's are some things you can't physically force yourself to do, but working out is something you can physically force yourself to do, so force yourself to do it and how much you are willing to do it won't make a difference if you just do it anyway. Overtime it becomes part of your life, especially if you basically schedule it in your life, then you'll have no problem with working out consistently. Fitwes16 is right about both things. Do it for yourself, and a soccer player that benches 260 shouldn't be messed with.;)
 
I was kind of tired today and didn't feel like lifting, but i got in dads yukon and drove to the gym anyways. On the way there I got pulled over and issued a seat belt ticket. Then I felt like lifting. Guess I just need a 25$ fine to get a spark under my ass.
 
I actually started working out immediately after my girlfriend dumped me. My motivation was that the next time she ran into me, I would be ripped, and she would kick herself for leaving me.

Well she moved away, but i still workout. Just lookin good for the next girl. Plus I feel like 1000 times better now that i got a clean diet and a good routine.
 
what motivates me is mostly that i want to set squat and deadlift PRs i want my squat up to 100kg and deadlift up to 125kg, it might take a while, im at about 80 and 105 now :p but im gonna do it. thats what motivates me, to each time i try my max seeing it getts closer, and each time i workout, feeling how the weight is lighter.
And the fact that ive always been very weak and now im trying to be strong, that motivates me alot, i dont want to be a weak person, i got picked at alot before because of that, but no more.
 
First off at 15 your goal should be to go with as many girls as possible, not worry about any particular one!!!!! Believe me when you get to be 30 or 40 you are going to look back and kick yourself for opportunities not taken while you wasted your time on someone you are not likely to spend the rest of your life with. If you do end up spending the rest of you life with someone you started dating at 15 I guarantee when you are 30 or 40 you will look back and kick yourself for opportunities not taken. :D

This should spark some fire...

Actually that helped a tonne! I read it and it got me completely pumped, ready to work out, and reminded me why I was doing this.

I am going to revamp my whole training diet, and routein, to something much more complex, and of course - better.


Thanks for all the tips guys! They all helped.
 
My motivation:

Not to be the smallest guy on the football field getting pushed around. I was my freshmen season and I was surprised I didn't brake a bone.
 
My motivation:

I am gearing up to become a police officer, and cops in general cannot be skinny and weak.
