In the gym, people's enthusiasm tends to get the best of them. They realize this is their opportunity to say hello or that they love my work... It doesn't matter how profusely you're sweating.
I know how I get hard. Running on a treadmill behind women in a gym normally does it for me.
I use the exercise room early, because I don't want to get on the treadmill and everyone's going 'Oh, Bill Cosby,' and then they come around to see how fast I'm walking, and it becomes very competitive.
Sometimes, if you go to the same gyms, the fans catch on to that, and they start hanging out at the gyms. It becomes a little bit of a circus.
Home workouts are great, but if you can get out, that's even better. If you tell yourself you're going to go do planks in the spare bedroom, you might get interrupted and not get your workout in.
I find outdoors easier than indoors, but I am more interested in indoor athletics. I prefer it because it is hotter indoors, and I like the shorter laps.
A big mirror to exercise in front of is essential.
Working out is for both the mind and body, and being in a beautiful setting is conducive to a more pleasant experience. The more you enjoy your surroundings, the more likely you are to work out longer and harder.
You put me on a treadmill, and I will run away, but you take me out on a beach, and I can run for an hour.
For any good course, you need somewhere beautiful to swim with a nice backdrop, some nice roads to cycle on, and a nice, fast run.
If motivation is an issue, I would try to get out of your house to work out, not just go into the basement.
You'll find that fellow gym go-ers are super supportive and friendly. It must be all those endorphins going around!
