the feeling of being lazy and not wanting to lift. I was just on vacation and took 2 weeks of. This was the only time I had off in the last year and when I got back into the gym I was weak, and not feeling in the usual gym mood. I want the intensity and fire back i my workouts. Any thoughts!!!

I lift in the evening around 5:30. About 5:00 I take that drink Speed Stack and all my motivation returns.

Once you start back the lifting itself re-motivates you!

I hated the way I looked most of my life. That's my motivation.

girls...lol

j/k. When I first started really working out (about 2 years ago after 3 years of on/off lifting) I was doing so to look better, but as time went on I began to set more and more goals for myself.

I started at about 155lbs 3 months ago and I'm now at 185lbs @ high 10's bf. My goal is 220-225lbs @ 6-7% bf by next year. Have a goal then pursue it.

man, a couple of weeks off and I can't wait to get back in the gym.

I think you are just sad that your vacation has ended

if I had 2 weeks off work, I would never make it back.....good thing I don't ever get a vacation.

ECA, chased by a strong cup of coffee. Guess I'm nuts.

The best motivation is setting the objective firmly in mind again

Change your routine up. Pick a goal. A goal is something realistic with a plan and a timeline, not- "I'd like to be as big as a house someday".
