Believe me, I totally understand this logic. I get bored with average workouts easily, too. That's why it's imperative that I have a trainer. I need that motivation. It's so much easier to commit to working out when I know I have someone to guide me through it.

For others, the idea of lifting weights doesn't appeal to them at all. That's why fitness classes like yoga, Jazzercise, and Zumba have gotten so popular over the last 20 years. It's a way to get in shape that sounds fun.
