Have you ever considered quitting the gym for good?

I have. Natural bodybuilding is too ungrateful. Knowing that nothing will change whether I barely do anything or train 6 days a week could be demotivating. Another problem for me is that the gym is a sterile environment where nothing ever changes.

You are going to the same room, seeing the same people, listening to the same stories, doing the same motions and of course looking the same year after year.

I believe that many men would benefit from doing minimal work in the gym and investing their energy in other active endeavors and sports that preferably require you to be outside doing something real instead of running on some hamster wheel and sharing oxygen with steroid chemists and women who are there only to show off their new Nike yoga pants.

If I had one month to live, I wouldn't spend a second of it in a barbell house.

So, how about you?

That is a bit like asking have you ever considered giving up brushing your teeth? Some times i hate doing it but i would not like the end result if i stopped.
The only way you get burnt out is if you overdo it. Make it too much of an important priority in your life, spent too much time doing it. Lose out on other things.and /or you were never satisified with the results. Always needing more
