Training for me means it helps with high stress, I used to be quite violent to my partner when we started going out like 13 years ago and just fly off handle for no reason..training makes me feel good..taught me self motivation..discipline..basically keeps me in line..sense of achievement..

Thoughts?

The first 6 points are exactly why I started lifting.. First year and a half was really into it.. but slowly lost motivation as I started to look better than average people I was around with.. few months later got back into it after a breakup and havent stopped ever since..

I wont say I love to go to the gym.. But I like the soreness and the discipline (diet, training, research) needed to see results.. I guess having a goal/timeframe is the key otherwise it's easy to lose motivation and hard to push yourself during workouts. 

p.s. its good to be back on Gymnation. used to be nzbb when I left

I got a good mate who has trained for years, and hates it.. I asked him a while ago, so why do you keep coming to the gym if you don't like training..  His answer was - Health.. He said if it wasn't for that, he wouldn't bother... Must be a bugger training when you don't enjoy it.

I go to the gym because it's one thing in the world I've achieved and can be good at. Being strong. I go because it makes me feel fantastic I'm not no fancy guy in a g string prancing around on stage. I'm just an iron addict. Maybe one day when I'm happy with loosing enough bf I'll compete but I think powerlifting and strongman is more my game
