I've been seeing a personal trainer for a while. There's not really anything I do in our sessions that I couldn't do alone, but self motivation is hard and I'm far more likely to both follow through on and enjoy exercising when I have someone else to go through it with. My trainer brings her dog to the gym, which I love. Today he was far more energetic than usual, with constant demands that my trainer throw his toy yet again. Me: have you considered getting one of those machines that throws the ball for him, so he wouldn't have to wait on you? Her: yeah but he doesn't like those, the interaction with me is the point. He won't self-motivate himself to run back and forth. Me: haha yeah I get it ​:neodog_blep:​
