Top Ten Reasons why you dont want to workout...

10. You're Intimidated
For some people, the idea of going to the gym and figuring out how to use the array of equipment is terrifying. Others don't like the idea of huffing and puffing in their sweats in front of a crowd.
Tiny Tit Syndrome

9. You're All Out Of Self-Control
If you've spent the day trying to pass up office sweets, you may not have the stamina to hit your evening gym class.
Dont let self control stop you from killing yourself fattie.

8. You're In Pain
New research from Australia's Flinders University has shown that among those aged 63 to 86, physical ailments were the most common barrier to exercise.
No pain no nubain

7.Nobody Else Is Doing It
If women, in particular, don’t see other women in their neighborhood exercising they're less likely to take a walk or hit the gym themselves, according to Amy Eyler of the Saint Louis University School of Public Health. That could be because of perceptions of safety, a lack of feeling that exercising is an accepted local norm or a simple lack of encouragement. Do it for yourself or imagine going to the Arnold Expo...

6.It Costs Too Much
The average monthly gym membership rate is $39 to $55 per month for individuals and around $102 for a family, according to the International Health, Racquet and Sportsclub Association. If that's too rich for your blood, you do have options.
On getbig everyone pulls in 6 figures.

5.It's Not As Easy As It Was In High School
You probably didn't have to think about exercising in high school. You ran track and played basketball on the weekends, and there was always daily gym class. But in college you weren't good enough to make a team and quickly found other ways to spend your time. An inability to cope with change is one of the biggest reasons physical activity declines as we transition from adolescents to young adults, says McMaster University researcher Steven Bray.
Loooser!

4. You Don't Like Exercise
When it comes to choosing between sitting on the couch or taking a walk, some people just prefer the sedentary option. That's a shame, researcher say, since apart from being a great way for people to lose weight, exercise has been shown to improve cognitive function, help control hypertension and reduce the risk of developing depression.
Its called a work out not a fun out.

3. You Just Don't Have The Time
It's the most common excuse people use to explain why they're not working out, trainers say. People are just too busy. Women, in particular, tend to say they feel too overloaded to find time to hit the gym, according to research from the Saint Louis University School of Public Health. Experts say people need to schedule time in their days to work out, just as they would a meeting, and make an effort to take brisk walks during the day.
There is always time, show me a person with no time an i will show you the mustard stain on thier shirt.

2. It's The Environment, Stupid
While for some a drop of rain is enough to prevent them from working out, for others it's the lack of pretty habitat. A 2002 study from the University of Queensland in Australia showed that pleasant surroundings can positively affect people's willingness to exercise. Having aesthetically pleasing and convenient places to walk, run and bike were all linked with physical activity.
Rocky ran in the rain


1. It Isn't Safe
People with lower incomes tend to be less physically active. New research from Harvard University suggests one major reason is that people living in low-income areas may not consider their neighborhoods safe enough to perform outdoor exercise. In a 2007 study, women in a low-income section of Boston who reported feeling unsafe at night took 1,000 fewer steps per day than other women--that's 20% less physical activity.

This is total bullshit

All forms of rationalizing boil down to their one true desire: they want to be fat and lazy.
