hey everyone, my name is Dave and im 19 years old, im 5'9 and i am 173 lbs.. I use to work out alot and was pretty active but then i stopped and got pretty lazy for the past 3 years and in those 3 years i lifted like only a few times a month. my goals are to get a little stronger and to lose wieght. Also my main goal is to stick to a lifting program. Everytime I try to get back to lifting i usally stop after a week or 2, i guess im not really motivated enough. Anyone have any tips for me to basically stay on track and to follow my program and keep lifting??
well nice to meet you all
Dave

hey i had the same problem with lazyness . im 19 myself .but i overcame that by hitting the gym hard 6 times a weeek for almost 8 mouths.. the thing that help me is #1 a cd player , to have music u love while working out gets u in to it.#2 motoivate yourself by having a reason to work out,(my reason is football i want it bad i no i can do it i got the size at6"4 250 pnds. i just lost 55 pounds so i feel more and more closer to my goal) dont work out just to do it cuz u have to ,cuz u lose the drive..if u get in to your workouts u will see changes ..and dont think it takes a week to see changes, it takes time ,and pain , but all and all it is worth it. take care and good luck ......
