There Is NO EXCUSE to NOT EXERCISE!

I have heard every excuse known to man, hell I have given every excuse known to man. Your biggest enemy is your excuses! Whatever your situation is, I can find a way for you to exercise.

C'mon try me, give me your excuse and I will find a way for you to get at least 15 minutes of exercise every day.

"I don't have time"

"I am too fat"

"My knees hurt"

"I can't afford a gym"

"I can't afford equipment"

"I can't do the exercises because..."

"I don't have anyone to do it with me"

"I am not motivated"

"I need to get back to the gym"

"I can't afford a personal trainer"

"I have an injured..."

"My mom won't let me"

"I have emphysema and will likely die soon" - OK, that's a good one and I just want you to live out your days in comfort.

What's your excuse?

No more excuses for me!  I am on week 8 of a couch to 5k program and it feels great to exercise.  One more week and I will be done and possibly move on to the 5k to 10k program. 

Nice. I finished it a couple months ago and have run a few 5ks since then. Its very gratifying crossing the finish line. Now I just want to improve my time and get one done in less than 30 minutes. Don't think I want to run any further though.

That is my goal too.....5k in 30 minutes or less.

Ive got several layers of bulging disks and spinal stenosis and enough narcotics in my body to tranqualize an elephant. If by "exercise" you mean walk to the bathroom instead of ******g all over my couch - done!

I didn't hear any excuses there, you are getting off the couch to not **** on yourself. I think I speak for us all when I say we applaud you for that!

OK, so I may be adding that to the emphysema excuse, but then again if you have that many narcotics in you, you won't feel the pain.

i think id just end my life if I got to the point where id rather **** on myself than walk to the bathroom :-p

As ****ty as it is (really no pun intended!) - i have so many pain meds in that I'm clinically high as a ******g kite, but still in excrutiating pain. I wonder if my insurance is going to pay for new liver/kidneys when I'm done with all this :)

Having to go through this - I will never take the ability to exercise for granted and waste another day with bull**** excuses of why I cant. It really is a gift that should be used.

Is this something you will recover from or is this for the rest of your life? Are the bulging disks from and injury or from being overweight? Do you think the number of meds is actually making you worse? Seems to me if you got off all of it you might start feeling better. My step father almost died from the number of meds he was on because doctors just keep piling them on. He got a new doctor that evaluated everything he was on, he went from something like 15-20 pills a day to like 3 and at 82 he feels better than he has in 20 years.

I feel for you, I wish I had some magic bullet for you. I have been reading your posts on here for quite a long time.

The wind blew........

Get a kite!
