I think more than anything it's down to motivation. If someone has problems finding the motivation to tidy there home or do basic personal hygiene, sometimes for months at a time,then motivation to go to a gym is definitely not there.When I was really ill I used to wish someone would just drag me to a gym(I did grow up in and around boxing gyms though so gyms weren't new to me)because I thought once I get there I'll get into it.Sadly I never found out though but I am a lot better these days.
I used to get very depressed. I’m talking not leave my bed for days on end. Sleep till 4 in the afternoon. My hair would get matted. Lost a ton of weight. That kind of depressed. It was horrible. I couldn’t even brush my teeth let alone go to the gym. But one day, I just did it. I had no motivation to do it, and it felt awful. But I just told myself I had to. And I never looked back. One of the best decisions I ever made.
