I've been working out for so long it's not even an issue of motivation for me any more -- I just do it, and don't even really think about it -- it's become a given that I'll work out five or six days a week.
That's not to say that I don't get into a rut once in a while where I don't feel like going. Usually I get over that because I realize that if I skip days, I don't feel as good. If I don't lift weights twice a week, instead of getting easier each time, it gets harder again. If I skip cardio workouts, after a few days my knee starts to bother me when I start again -- it's almost good having a jacked knee, because it's fine if I work out all the time, but if I don't it sure complains about it.
Right now I'm getting back into running -- and I think running is great at keeping you motivated, because the more you do it, the easier it is. I love that.
