[QUOTE="Mbaker, post: 2472938, member: 256617"] It is just your mind preventing you from getting on that rower and doing some weights. I follow alot of Youtubers who have been at the top of their sport and have selected a path of low carb / keto and exercise to maintain and build; even they have the occasional motivational issue, so you are not alone. I felt like that yesterday after a bad nights sleep.....I dragged my sorry "..rse" and got after it and then did some more later in the day. A trick is to do something light to get the blood flowing, I do punches, blocks, kicks and stretches. The self conscious thing I really get. When I went to the gym a few weeks ago, after severe Covid, I felt like everyone was watching me, due to my half strength and heavy breathing. I failed a bench press for the first time in my lift at 100 kg, so embarassing as I had no spotter and had to roll the bar from my chest to the floor - 3 weeks on I am now able to rep 105 kg x3 at the end of 5 x 5 session, due to consistency. If you keep to your protocol the weeks will fly by. You may not even notice change (others will), but your body will thank you. Try to see exercise as a reward to your body not a chore. [/QUOTE]
