Having external motivation isn’t a bad thing.
Just because you find someone/thing else inspiroring doesn’t mean that you lack motivation or that you aren’t training for yourself.

I play college football at a D2 school in Minnesota. My motivation is to start at Defensive Tackle, as a redshirt freshmen going into next season. It is something I can very easily do, it’s just going to take consistent hard work. And I’ve never been afraid to work, to get something that I truly want. I have always told myself, you may not always get what you want, but you’ll always get what you deserve.

To be better than other people, and come as close to perfect as I possibly can before I die.

The mirror.

If I dont lift, my job will have me looking like Jabba the Hut. Alright, I resemble him a little now but Im working on it.

27

Good health I guess. I don’t really have a motivation.

I played sports from about 1st grade on youth teams through high school and then some intramurals in college.

We always exercised for athletic conditioning in school and my pops bought me a weight bench in fifth grade.

He worked with me from that age til the coaches took over. Exercise has always been a part of me and it feels weird when I skip more than a week.

Same reason as 1morerep. At 39 years I look and feel better than I did at twenty or thirty years…

The visual progress envolved. Changing the way i look drives me. The unknown. What will I look like with 10 more lbs of lean tissue? 20 or 30 more? I have no idea how big I want to be. I just know today I want to be bigger. So I do what i need to do in the gym and kitchen.

I don’t really have anything better to do.

same here. to be stronger, fitter, bigger, and more confident with a higher self esteem than at any other time in my life. this lifestyle gives me a discipline and sense of well being that i find often lacking in others.

To impress people of course. That’s why I do anything productive. That and boredom.

Edit: made it look less emo
