This is a question for you. I am writing a short booklet or “manifesto” on Exercise and Fitness for Seniors, and I am including a section on Motivation. I would appreciate your help.
We all know that we should exercise, eat right and get plenty of rest and sleep. Some do and some don’t. Why or why not?
Here are my questions:
If you exercise, what drives you to do it? What motivates you to exercise? What kind of exercise do you do? What are your exercise goals? What benefits do you actually get from exercising? Tell me briefly about what you do and why.
If you don’t exercise, what stops you? What prevents you from doing it? Why don’t you exercise?
I am interested in REAL reasons why or why not. I will not reveal names. I may include real answers in the manifesto and in a future blog post. It’s important to me that you give me real reasons — even if the reason is that “I don’t want to”. But if that’s your answer, would you please elaborate a bit.
How about sending aa brief one or two paragraph answer to bob@thecomealiveproject.com and put “MOTIVATION” in the subject line.
I’m thanking you in advance for you help. Thank you for participating.
