Join a club, badminton, tennis, football, ballroom dancing with the lady in your life .. whatever you fancy doing .. I think that works better than going to the gym, works for me, anyway
problem with that is a number of things, ive not a woman in my life, not many clubs around where i live lol plus with my work being unsociable hours, its a bit difficult but thanks for the suggestions :)Quote:

my preferred method of exercise is dancing as I find going to a gym boring but I never get bored of dancing. However, I do find I am more motivated if I have someone to go with me.. I find it hard to motivate myself especially if the nights are a bit cold..
That is why I loved going belly dancing .. and as the studio was just around the corner from my place, I was able to drag myself out on cold nights too. Once my injury has healed I shall look into some form of dancing classes over here, I doubt there is belly dancing as I have not heard of it and this is a small community but I shall find something
Yeah, I need to find a pole dancing class here.. I loved doing that
I find it easier when there is someone else as well. I like fitness DVDs aswell especially if it is cold and you don't fancy heading outside.
thinking about getting one of those stands that you put the back wheel of your bicycle on, then when ya can only make it out for say 10-15 mins your normal bike turns into an exercise bike lol sounds like a good gadget, but my diet is working well, full steam ahead and seeing some results so far anyway...
still havent got the bike stand but i have joined a local gym, working out well and get getting my exercise 2-3 days a week 2 and a hal;f stone off in 10 weeks
I'm playing gaa again so I am training twice a week plus going for runs in between, it's great fun!!
happy days, at least your are getting the exercise in there Katy!! i hate road running lol
I really should do more exercise, all I do is walk.
I dont really the gym unless I go with someone. I refer fitness classes.

All I do is walk, several times a day with my dogs, lost a stone in weight with no other diet ... seems to work for me :D
I'm enjoying running at the moment, it's took a while to get into it but once you pass that barrier it's good fun!!
I haven't done any exercising for months. With all the changes at work I didn't renew my gym membership in the summer as i didn't know i I would be able to use it plus they cancelled the zumba claas I used to go to I like dancinng but I have two left feet.
The problem I have with fitness dvds is they are so easy to turn off!Quote:
