Does anyone have any gym tips?

I liked going to the gym a lot 'cause I had a gym buddy and we had a lot of fun, also when I started seeing the first results I was hooked. The friend moved and I haven't gone for a few months, I recently joined again.. but I'm not going as I should. i know i have to go cause it gives me a great mood boost (i really need it) and then i looked so much better. Yet almost every day I keep putting it off until the day is done and it depresses me even more. How do I make the thought of going to the gym easier?

When I don’t have a gym buddy I have to have a new program to try that I’m excited about, try a new kind of class, have a brand new playlist/artist/mix to listen to or even just a new type of exercise for the same body area that I’m training. Sometimes putting on a nice gym outfit that makes me feel good is enough to want to go but it is just enough to go there and do a warm up, the more you go even for a short time the easier it will be over the long term <3

I set a task I only allow myself to do at the gym Right now it’s my dear friends amazing audiobook. It’s my treat for taking care of me. Before his book it was a special iced tea I love from the place right next to the gym. Also putting it in my calendar as an appointment really helps me. But if getting TO the gym is the hard part try starting with some YouTube videos.

I had started with some weights at home before the gym, but now it seems unfeasible. I will at least try to put on my shoes and leave the house so that I can tell myself "maybe you arrive there and then you don't enter". i dunno, i'm just very demoralized tbh

Same here! I'm thinking of making a new gym buddy to compete cause I've got no motivation except serotonin
