It’s officially Autumn and you know what that means… we can stop worrying about being bikini ready for a few months and enjoy big jumpers, hot chocolate and weekend-long Netflix binges.
So, if you’re mates haven’t got the memo, here are some excuses why you absolutely can’t go to the gym tonight:
“I might have pulled a muscle yesterday carrying shopping in, or something.”
“Someone might try and talk to me on the treadmill.”
“I’m too hungry to exercise.”
“I’ve eaten too much to exercise.”
“I might see someone I know and be forced into a nightmare of awkward small talk.”
“It’s the morning and I’m too tired.”
“It’s the evening… and I’m too tired.”
“It’s lunchtime, I’ve just eaten and I’m in a food coma. So I’m too tired.”
“I look fat in my gym clothes.”
“I just gave up smoking/drinking/refined sugar/gluten, so I mustn’t overdo things.”
“I think I could be getting a cold.”
“I’ve just bought new trainers, so I need to break them in before I run in them.”
“The Topshop sale is on, which is excellent cardio.”
“It’s raining out.”
“I’m too far into this whole fat thing to quit now.”
“I really, really, really just can’t face it today.”
Happy binge watching!
