Why do you workout?

I'm curious.

 

Because i like to look better, makes me more confident and it has became a lifestyle to me. I just like to do it, it's like my hobby.

 

I realized how unhealthy I was. I'm not fat, in fact I have very low body fat. Years of my spending most of my time sitting on the computer, schools that didn't really prioritize PE (Uni didn't even have it or encouraged it). Let's just say that I may have looked like I was in shape, but I couldn't jog for 5minutes straight without feeling absolutely winded. More muscles, less body fat, and feeling healthier is why I work out.

 

I still want to play pro basketball, thats the main reason.In general i just love doing it, especially lifting heavy, setting new PRs,compting with others.

 

It's easy for me. Being in my early 20's and being skinny is a big nono! Started to lift and gained some decent size!

 

I always looked toned but the muscle I had was very squishy. I wasn't happy looking fake and I wanted to actually be strong, not just look it. So basically I started in like September last year and slowly worked my way up

 

For good feeling and muscles

 

It's always nice to stay fit, you'll never know when you need it.

 

To feel better overall and have more energy

 

To be healthier and look fitter.

 

Self esteem solely at first. Now that but health, fitness and overall well being all amalgamate themselves as the driving force behind working out and running.

 

Working out just makes me feel better about things and it's a confidence booster for sure.

 

Helps me feel awake and helps me get my mind off things. The boost to self esteem and strength is great too.

 

I work out to be stronger in my sport, to feel healthier and to finally look slim or muscular when I shed most of the weight I've accumulated since childhood.

 

Lol @ looking fake. That's a new one.

 

To get healthier and reduce body fat.

 

Because I need to fulfill my dream..

 

For maintaining my health and building muscle + its a stress relief.

 

To gain strength, get more muscular and to improve in Rugby.

 

besides what the others have mentioned, it's nice to see direct progress when you put work into something like lifting
