I’m headed to the gym now which is why I wanted to share this post first for a good laugh. These photos were shared on FB and I found myself laughing out loud over them.
They take the traditional fitspo inspirational quotes normally shown over fitness photos and instead show them over drinking photos. Funny, right?
Side note: obviously drinking can be a problem for a lot of people and I understand it can be a sensitive subject. Since I’m not much of a drinker these made me laugh and I hope they are taken in the same light!
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Do not give up, the beginning is always the hardest.
Sore? Tired? Out of breath? Sweaty? Goood…. it’s working.
Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.
If the bar’s not bending, you’re pretending.
Your body isn’t telling you “I can’t do this / I need to stop / It hurts / It burns / I’m tired.” Your mind is. Shut it up with more.
Wake up with determination. Go to bed with satisfaction.
Maybe I found this so hilarious because I’m giving up drinking to focus on fitness. I’ve never really been a huge drinker and only really drink in social situations. However, cutting back on these social drinking situations will give me more time to focus on fitness. Yay!
I had a good chuckle over these and maybe you will too. If you’d like some actual fitness motivation, check out these fitness motivation posts:

Happy Friday, have a great weekend!
As a heavy drinker who mostly gave up drinking to go back to school (oh haaay brain function… it’s hard to do calculus while drinking) I find these hilarious too. Every time I see them, they crack me up.
Haha glad I’m not the only one! Drinking and a lot of things don’t mix unfortunately so sometimes it’s just easier to give it up entirely.
Those are hilarious!!
Thanks for sharing!
I’m tired of all of the ‘fitspiration’ quotes, especially working in the field and seeing all of the rock-hard-ripped-twenty-somethings in the images… …. so as a result, I LOLed something chronic at these! SO much better :D
:-)
The point of these isn’t really to be funny, though. It’s to point out how dangerous/ disordered this type of thinking can be.
Very true! There is an extreme in the fitspiration that is posted that is very disordered and dangerous and when applied to anything else in life you can see that but when it’s for “healthy stuff!!” you kinda gloss over it.
This is the first I’ve seen those. Hilarious!
I so hate fitspo. These are fantastic. Too funny.
These are awesome! Too funny! Love the 3rd one; so true. Ha
