What keeps you motivated?

There we are again, in the midst of the New York winter ( a very cold and economically challenging one, on top of that). So the question remains: who is one supposed to stay motivated during this particular stretch of time?

Well, one way of looking at it could be trying to look like Scott G. above.....

But optics are not all of it, there is a more wholesome component to it. As the above competitor said: " Bodybuilding  allows me to grow as person, bringing mind and body together."

Think of bodybuilding not so much as a sport , but more as something that influences you as a person. The ability to constantly better your body will transform into real life confidence. After all, if you can shape yourself the way you want there is no reason that you shouldn't have control over other aspect of your life ( which might even help in the current downturn). 

So stick with it!
