@jeffnippard So much of staying fit comes down to finding something active that you actually enjoy and letting it run in the background of your life. Those who rely on motivation rarely sustain their goals. That usually isn’t because they need more motivation. It’s because motivation alone isn’t as effective as people think. The real key is finding a physical activity you genuinely like, so your fitness goals can operate in the background. That can be a sport you used to play, hiking, walking, swimming, anything you’d still want to do even if it didn’t “count” as a workout. Some days you’ll still need motivation, especially if your goals are ambitious. But the less you depend on it, the more likely you are to succeed long term.
