Why did you start working out?

Why do you continue?

Discuss.

I started because I was tired of being the skinny kid that couldn't bench press the bar or do 1 pullup. I started because I wanted to have a nice body. I continue to workout because I've seen the health benefits and don't want to go back. I've also grown to enjoy my time at the gym more than many of my old habits like watching television or playing videogames.

Because I had too much free time

Wanted to look bigger.

I.... am a very stubborn person. I always lay as much stress on my body and mind hoping to become the best version of myself I can be. People often tell me that I am crazy for waking up early some days to workout, people always say its easier to do so and so. But here's the thing. I don't care if its easy or not. Life is not meant to be easy. I do whatever I can to be the best. I strive for perfection every day. I don't do easy. I started working out because I knew it was another challenge I had to overcome. I workout as much as I can becasue I'm never satisfied with my results. I'm always hungry.

I wasn't getting any girls

@amazingwebhead: That's why I wanted a better body lol. Das it mane.

I wanted to get buff.

@wolverine08: You could have just eaten a lot of food.

I don't recall starting. And I won't stop.

I want to get Bigger, Stronger, Faster.

Worshiped Randy Orton for a while.

So that I can climb mountains with better stamina

I started working out because gym time was required for HS wrestling. I continue because I like it.

So I could stop being considered the runt of my family. Also, women, I mean let's be honest.

Now I do it, because I'm strangely in love with the pain. Maybe because I have a lot of repressed rage.

females

I was bored.

I started doing martial arts and wanted a more powerful body.

Followed my father as a child. Didn't even notice when it became a routine.

I wanted to get more lean.

I wanted to look and feel better.

To defeat my evil twin brother and save the Holy Lands from the 1000 years of darkness that has engulfed them, lift the curse, and fulfill my destiny.

Foreal though, to become the arm wrestling champion at my middle school. Haven't legitly worked out for a good while though. Lol. Main reason for continuing(if I did) would be to look good, feel better, live a better lifestyle, and it's more advantageous to be in fit shape than overweight.

I felt like it.

I got p*ssed off.

For my butt.

I started when I was little due to watching DBZ lol. I later continued to just keep a good physic.

Wrestling.

School requirement + Tired of Being Skinny + Living Close to Beach + Girls = Motivation

So that I would consume excess water in a world where fresh, clean water is scarce and will become increasingly so.

Because I'm fat....

I used to get all my exercise (mostly cardio) when I played competitive soccer and when I stopped, my body reacted accordingly. Someone claimed he could make me healthier, stronger and even hotter and dared me to let him prove it. So I took on the dare and he proved it. I keep working out because I like how I feel and look. Him keeping me in line helps too.

So I could stop being a lazy piece of sh*t, and to pick up chicks.

I needed to up my sports and get a girlfriend

At first it was just to get as strong as possible but that was back when I was a kid. Now it's mainly for aesthetics.

So i can eat like a mtn troll ! Plus i like lifting heavy things. It really makes me happy moving one heavy iteam from place to another. I do functional strength training. Kettlebells, ropes, body lifting and i run monday threw thursday. But this also helps my body out i have Acromegaly. One of the reasons i type so awful is that my hands are so big. But so far only one tumor!

There is this girl.. she is the only person i consider my friend... Winston Churchill said " why stand when you can sit." well i never had a why until now.
