Top 10 Reasons You Don't Exercise

10. You Really Hate to Exercise

Enjoying exercise may seem impossible, but it can be done. Almost any exercise may feel hard at first but, with some practice and consistency, your body gets stronger and you may even start to like it.

9. You've Tried to Exercise but You Keep Quitting

People often quit working out for a variety of reasons:

• Doing too much too soon - Going from no exercise to 7 days at the gym is bound to leave you exhausted and burned out.

8. You Can't Afford a Gym Membership

There's no reason you have to join a gym to exercise, but there are more affordable options such as the YMCA or local community centers. More ways to save money:

7. You're Not Seeing Any Changes in Your Body

Not losing weight fast enough? Unfortunately, that's true for everyone. You don't put weight on overnight and it won't come off that quickly either. Once you start exercising, give your body time to react.

6. You Don't Know How to Exercise

This is a popular excuse, but it won't fly what with the wealth of information at your fingertips.

5. You Want to Exercise but You Have to Take Care of the Kids and Family

You don't have to neglect your family to fit in exercise. Carving out workout time will not only give you the energy you need for a busy schedule, it shows your kids what it means to be healthy.

4. You Can't Seem to Stay Motivated to Continue Working Out

If you're tired or stressed, it's hard to keep going with your workouts. However, waiting to feel motivated to exercise can actually backfire.

3. Exercise HURTS! 

You don't have to hurt yourself to reap the benefits of exercise.

2. You Can't Make the Commitment to Stick to an Exercise Routine

When you look at exercise in the long term (i.e., that you have to exercise on a daily basis forever), it can be overwhelming.

1. You Don't Have Time

Physically inactive people have just as much free time as exercisers, so you can chuck this excuse.
