What motivates you?

  I've been on a pretty good roll of exercising consistently for the last few months. Mind you, I am certainly not ready for any type of muscle girl competitions. I have lost a few pants sizes and am getting a little more toned. My motivation? Our cruise in a few months and the fact that I should maintain some level of activity in my old age - LOL. My workout of choice - the good old treadmill at the gym.  Oh, I had one at our home and swore i wouldn't be one of "those" people who just hung clothes on their treadmills. Well, I did become one of those people. Kinda - I never hung clothes on it. I also rarely used it while in our home. I do better working out in a gym. We are blessed to be able to have memberships at a few gyms in town.

  The gym I really like is 1.) open 24 hours, 2.) RARELY busy and 3.) it's super clean. Email me and I may tell you where it is - LOL. Can't let it get too busy.  My husband and I have also recently started doing yoga - Vinyasa yoga at home. The P90X version. To say it is rough is an understatement, but I love it. I can not believe how sore I can get from stretching and holding poses. We have also started playing table tennis. Little did I know the workout I would get from this. Mind you, it's mostly from running after the balls. But that counts - right?

 So, what motivates you to workout? Where do you work out? Do you have a workout buddy?
