"My problem is not about the lack information but the determination to start & continue exercising.
Like, I keep procrastinating about working out and it never happens. Or when it does, I can’t keep up. The drive dies quickly."

Your drive died, that's normal. It happens when we're distracted.
The human brain in 2020 is very distracted.
So of course you will tune out. Often. There's always one stimulus begging your attention or the other.
It's normal and you're not alone, no need feel incompetent.

After sharing this simple idea with you. You're bound to exercise more consistently.
So, to exercise consistently here's what you must do.
So, to exercise consistently here's what you must do.
Wait, first before anything else. You must establish a reason for exercising CONSISTENTLY.
I mean something linked to your identity– how you see yourself.
Without this reason you'll always compromise when it's time to go.
Might as well flush all down the drain.

Now let's dive in.
Do you know one thing your brain gets high on?
It's Patterns. It loves that shit.
Your brain is always seeking patterns. Subconsciously. You can't control this so much.

Your brain is always seeking patterns. Subconsciously. You can't control this so much.
You listen to music, your brain seeks a rhythm.
You look at clouds in the sky, you brain makes out a face.
In a conversation, your brain fixates on the tone of the speaker.
Patterns they're everywhere!
Well then, why not use patterns to start exercising consistently?

How do you do this?
Trick your brain. You trick your brain to recognize a pattern and it will fixate on it.
You have to make this pattern yourself. So here's how.
-Start stupid small.
Select your base. /\\
Build on it. /\\/\\/\\/\\/\\
For example...

For example...
One of the 6 fundamental moves is squatting.
- You pick squatting as your base /
- Start with- say 1 Squat today. /
- Do 2 squats tomorrow. /\\
- Increase by one every day. /\\/\\
This simple task seems like nothing at first. Feels boring.
Your brain rejecting...

But you know what? You're now making a pattern.
After the rejection phase. Your brain is now paying attention.
"Hmm what are you doing here"
It's gonna fixate soon.

It's gonna fixate soon.
You'll notice that sooner or later.
Say on day 30*-
when you don't feel like doing squats. Your brain wants to add one more rep as it's done for the past 29 days.
*this number of days is random- for illustration.
And that, my friend, is how you do it.

Finally.
I must add Mindfulness is important when you create these patterns. Mindfulness makes you recognize your brains resistance to the change.
It helps you keep at it on days you don't feel like it. Helps you to not overthink things. Practice mindfulness.

In conclusion. Your first fitness goal is: create a pattern.
The goaI is neither getting a big butt, nor a big chest, and not to lose weight.
Create a pattern, first.
