For those that workout regularly or even sporadically?

[rjroy3]

What's your #1 reason for working out?

Too look sexy in clothes and naked/attract the opposite sex

For sport

For your health

To get stronger

Just enjoy being fit

[Jadekitten]

Because I'm very competitive and I work extremely hard to be the best I can physically. I love running and riding horses and doing exercises, it helps with my depression and I can walk around and feel proud of my body which I love as well. Plus, I love winning. My hard work shows and I am excelling in track & field and riding. Even though I'm younger I take pride in how hard I work and I love the feeling after working out. Because of my social anxiety I sometimes feel like no one likes me and running and riding well helps me feel better about myself. Plus, being healthy is fantastic and I enjoy being fit!

[rjroy3]

Sounds like "just enjoy being fit" is your category lol. But that's awesome : )

[Jadekitten]

Yeah, probably! I put for sport though. And thank you!!

[Jadekitten]

Thank you so much for MHO!!

[Cleveland]

Reasons being:

To be healthy and strong
Have comradery (surrounding myself with like individuals)
Stay focused (Too many invitations to the bar during the week lol)
Decompress
And yes... I love my workout clothes!

[rjroy3]

I'm glad you can admit the other reasons, a lot of girls just say to be healed because they don't want to say they want to lose some weight

[Cleveland]

I love working out and the way you feel after a really good one is priceless! If you want to be in shape you have to work out :-)

[rjroy3]

Lol I was fumbling around two days ago after working legs. Walking down the stairs was just horrible xD

[NovemberJoseph]

Combination of all of them.

My main reason, is because I used to be super skinny and even a little chubby, so I was skinny fat, but I've put on a good amount of muscle and even lost a bit of fat now after almost a year of n00b lifting. I've been lifting smart for about 5 months of that year.

So I guess my answer is a combination of A and D. All I know is, I LOVE lifting. Something I'll be doing for the rest of my life.

Its my genetics that drives me to workout. I am natural ectomorph and was very skinny (48kg), what makes it worse is that I used to get hunchbacks because I was not confident with my figure. After all these times working out, I manage to "fill in my skinny pockets" and gain some weight (79kg). I always enjoy the sensation of relief after working out. Wards off all the pressures I get from social interactions and academic studies.

[Heathrowguy]

It's in my genes. All my grandfathers from mums and dad side were in British army. It's discipline.
If you respect your body it will compliment you.

[rjroy3]

That's a good point. I should have added, "lifestyle"

[ButterflyXkisses]

I voted A because it's my main motivation. I want my body to look good. But I also exercise because it's good for my health. I don't want to die from all the issues that come with being overweight and not exercising.

[musicbrain5]

For my health and also because I really enjoy it. Working out is actually pretty fun.

[rjroy3]

I enjoy some workouts too. Most times I only enjoy it when I'm already strong in a movement lol.

[musicbrain5]

Haha, yeah I hate getting started but once I'm into it, it's fun. That's how I feel about running.

[rjroy3]

I need to get back on my running eh

[lolamia]

For my health... But I also want to stay in shape... I am a dancer so I work out a lot!

[rjroy3]

I've dated my share of dancers. Working out is a lifestyle for you ladies : )

[lolamia]

Indeed!!!

[SuperNurse42]

All of the above? Mostly strength. It's a powerful feeling, almost like a drug.

[rjroy3]

Yea, pure strength development is what I care about. Most people usually have 1 big reason that motivates them. While they like the other benefits, they usually do it for one reason

[YOVANILLA]

I started working out because I was fat, but continue to because I want to have what I consider to be the perfect physique.

[rjroy3]

Gonna get that Hollywood athlete look!

[YOVANILLA]

Not so much

[front2back]

I only care about getting stronger, mentally and physically.

[rjroy3]

Same. Muscles don't mean much if you can't do anything with them

[sovetskii13]

Mainly for health. I wanna get my body moving. I need my muscles to be active and for my heart to be used to working harder when needed. Eventually there will be better circulation around the body, less muscle pain, and other improvements.

[aamy811]

To look good. If working out wasn't healthy if still do it, because I don't want to be fat. Being thin is my life's biggest motivation

[rjroy3]

As long as you're still eating I'm all for being thin. If it's done in a healthy way

[aamy811]

Honestly if I got desperate enough I'd do whatever I needed

[MrAnonAbaddon]

All of last three, plus I think this girl I like would like me more if I was bigger.

Not that she doesn't, we talk and laugh but she doesn't see me that way.

[Alessus]

To maintain and improve my physical fitness. So, I guess that would fall under either C or D, I'll go with D.

[luimi]

Improves my self-steem and my health. Makes me feel very good overall :0)

[Anonymous]

I work out Just to keep my body from degrading. I don't do intensive training, not do I track it. My workouts are just to help me stay healthy.

[Anonymous]

To enlist under a NSW contract.

[ihatethiswebsite]

Probably to look better and for something to do

[Swede888]

Health reasons.
