Having trouble getting motivated for bodybuilding

[Krassus]

<FONT face=Verdana>I've been working out for about 10 months, and while i'm pretty satisfied with my achievments, i also realize that i could have done a lot more.

Lack of motivation was always a problem to some extent, but now it's really getting to me. See, before i always used girls for motivation - having a body good enough to get the girls i want was my goal.

And now i've pretty much achieved that and have nothing left to motivate me. As a result, i've been slacking off. Help!</FONT>

That's the thing, i'm in shape already. The shape is good enough for girls, but not for me. I want more. But i can't motivate myself based on that alone.

Either you are satisfied or you are not.



Perhaps you are on a "plateau". Stop and ENJOY the results of your labor for awhile . . .

then . . .

get back to work.




Are you eating properly; resting; have OTHER distractions?

EDIT: Sometimes it helps to buddy up with someone also interested in your sport . . .you can encourage each other.

I have zero interest in powerlifting. I'm into bodybuilding.
