It can be a hard time of year to go to the gym. If you're anything like me, as soon as you get off of work, all you feel like doing is cuddling up in a big ball by the fire and watching a bad TV show. But you can't go forever without exercise, or else your body will start to get angry with you. Your muscles will cry out for movement, your legs yearn for leg day. Ok maybe nobody's legs truly yearn for leg day, but we know we have to do it sometimes, or else we will look like an upside-down triangle.

As Newton famously said, "A body in motion tends to stay in motion, and a body at rest tends to stay at rest." This is true for our human forms as it is for frictionless spheres in space. So this January, treat your body to a little movement, you probably won't regret it.

Deciding to work out is one thing, drumming up motivation to actually do it is a whole separate feat. Some do this by sheer force of habit, they know they have to work out at a certain time, so they do. Some do it with pump-up music, upbeat songs that get them ready to pump iron. But I do it with memes. Memes inspire me.
