Workout Motivation

its been tough to get working out again, I need to find that motivation. Last year I was motivated by a beach trip we had planned, but I don't have that this year. I like to use nudity to motivate me, so maybe I need to focus more on that! Maybe taking some nude workout pics would keep me going. I can be a bit of an exhibitionist so maybe I should use that to my advantage. Anyone want to swap a weekly nude workout pic? I'm thinking that if I take a weekly pic I can use that to track any improvements. ANyone interested in doing this with me? How do you stay motivated?

My motivation is mainly health-related. I started having knee problems that are at least partially due to poor muscle tone. After doing physical therapy to correct the problem, I bought a Bowflex so I could continue working out at home. It was cheaper than a gym membership with the added advantage that I can exercise in the nude. In addition, I'm trying to lose some weight. By weighing myself daily and recording it, that serves as a reminder and motivation to continue with the exercises which I do three times/week.

I now do a flexibility and body weight workout in the basement nude on days I don't go to the gym. It is tempting to buy some basic equipment so I can skip the gym and workout clothes every day.

I have often wondered if nudism has sometimes motivated some nudists to be more fit. Even though it is not the main reason for my workouts, it does motivate me to give more thought to my diet. As one professional athlete says, abs are made in the kitchen.

Very definitely. The original push for nudism was part of a general health and fitness movement in Germany. Those early nudists followed a fairly strict lifestyle that included lots of nude outdoor exercise.

Do you think it is still true today?

So would I. I do some body weight, stretching and balance exerciseIs nude in the basement on days that I don't go to the gym. I am considering buying some basic equipment so I can skip the trip to the gym and the workout clothes every day!

Grandson wanted to be in the basement while I was exercising today so I thought I should wear shorts. It was surprising how uncomfortable even minimal clothing can be in a situation where you usually aren't wearing any.

I had joined a local gym which is open 24 hours a day thinking I wouldn't have an excuse to not go, but for the month I had joined I only went twice. After trying that I decided to do a simple workout at home with the equipment I had, which should be more than enough. I did get started, but my motivation was working out nude! It was being naked that got me focused on working out again. I have mirrors set up around the basement and that helps me watch my progress. I tell me self that the more I do here the more comfortable I'll be at the nudist camps. I know no one really cares what shape you're in, but I'm using that as motivation and its working so far!
I'm tempted to try to clean out more of the basement so I could maybe invite other nudists to work out with me.
I agree about how different wearing just one piece of clothing can be. I have a very thin pair of running shorts that weigh very little, but even with those on I feel weighted down. Its just a much better feeling to be totally naked - but you all already knew that!
