Do you like to workout?

I absolutely LOVE working out. I love running, strength training, cross training, streching, circuit training- everything! If I had the time I'd spend 3 hours at the gym every day. I get so excited when its time to go to the gym- I never need any motivation to get there.

DH thinks I'm weird and doesn't believe people actally like working out.

So do you like working out? Do you only do it because you have to? Do you have a love/hate relationship with the gym?

Re: Do you like to workout?

Love it - just wish I didn't have the stress of fitting it in. I have to do it at 5am, but it's my time (unless the kids wake of course).

Re: Do you like to workout?

I love yoga and go 5 days a week. I also love bike riding and jogging but that's getting hard because of the weather

Re: Do you like to workout?

No. I do like it once I am there and then after but I don;t love it...

My DH LOVES working out, lifting...he doesn't get why I don't LOVE going to the gym...

Re: Do you like to workout?

I love running and working out. It is the only thing I get to do for me.

Re: Do you like to workout?

I LOVE working out. Love a kick butt Spin class and lifting heavy, heavy weights.
I'm also really into boxing, got into it about a year ago and now I feel like I can't get an intense enough workout without punching a bag!

Re: Do you like to workout?

HATE IT - i rather be home doing the housework or trying to fix something instead of taking a hour a day to go to the gym as much as possible.

It does make me feel better but i have to say its torture at times. I guess if I did classes it would make the time go by faster but I just can't bring myself to go into a class.

Re: Do you like to workout?

When I'm in my groove, yes I totally do. When I get out of the rhythm though it's hard to get back to liking it again even thought deep down I know I do.
I think the key is finding things you actually like to do.

Re: Do you like to workout?

I love to run, but I hate strength training.

Re: Do you like to workout?

I definitely like it at least, because I know myself & I know if I didn't like it I wouldn't do it. Sometimes I really love it... if I'm feeling good, not too tired, etc... I really do enjoy it & look forward to it. Some days, like when it's really cold out or the week before my period, I don't feel like getting myself to the gym... but usually once I'm there I'm happy I went. When I push myself hard, I can't say I'm actually enjoying it, but I love the sense of accomplishment afterward & how my body feels so relaxed afterward. My favorite is running, but I don't mind doing weights & the elliptical or bike either.

Re: Do you like to workout?

I like it once I'm doing it, but getting myself to do it is a whole differnet story

Re: Do you like to workout?

I do not like to "workout" but I do feel good when I am done.

Re: Do you like to workout?

Re: Do you like to workout?

I don't actually love it, but I love how I feel afterwards. The harder I push myself, the better I feel. I am always happy I did it, but I have trouble motivating myself to get up to run or to get to the gym.

Re: Do you like to workout?

Sometimes. Sometimes I'm really in the mood to get sweaty and burn calories but other times, eh, not so much.

Re: Do you like to workout?

Yes I love it but there are def lots of days I have to drag my butt to do it

Re: Do you like to workout?

I actually really like it to but I find that i like classes and music...so if I am not in a class or have motivating music then I am not so into it

I LOVE the rush after the gym....its worth it just for that

Re: Do you like to workout?

I'M SO JEALOUS OF YOU!!!! What is your secret? What keeps you motivated? Please share! I hate going to the gym. I just go because I have to... But I love the way I feel after I workout. I do love yoga though and I used to get very excited going to class! I haven't done yoga in a while but hopefully I should be starting again pretty soon!

Re: Do you like to workout?

I love working out but that's because I do what I love. (dance based stuff, occasional runs, hikes, working with a trainer when I can, etc)

I also kind of need it - it keeps my mood up if I workout regularly. If I don't move, I become a depressed mess.

Re: Do you like to workout?

I do enjoy working out for the most part. I like feeling like my body is strong and that I have accomplished something, pushing myself as hard as I can but then sometimes, it feels like a chore. In the end though, I feel much better working out, then not

Re: Do you like to workout?

I like it but would like it much more if I had a buddy but a serious one. I sometimes go with a friend & she is done after like 15 min while I am done after an hour.
