>>About six months or so ago I decided I wanted to get >>in better shape so I started going to the gym >>regularly with the plan to work out 5-6 days a week. >>However I find it really rather challenging to >>actually follow through and maintain this plan, >>especially since this is in addition to all of my >>school commitments (and I take school very seriously). >>As assignments/exams start to pile up it can be hard >>to find the time to fit a workout into my daily >>schedule. >> >>And also, I really do not enjoy the gym at all. For me >>the gym is a big pain in the you-know-where and any >>given workout feels like it can't end soon enough. I >>envy those who actually enjoy this activity because >>this would be so much easier if I enjoyed it rather >>than consistently dread it and wish for it to be >over. >> >>On any given day there's always some excuse I can come >>up with to skip the workout that day. It's so easy to >>think "oh man I don't think I have the time or energy >>to go to the gym today but I will definitely be there >>tomorrow!" and then tomorrow arrives and I find myself >>once again thinking the same thing. And before I know >>it a full week has gone by without a workout and I've >>lost whatever progress I made. >> >>There are some weeks where I execute upon my plan and >>actually go 5-6 times but there are other weeks where >>I fall far short of that. And with school starting up >>again last week I once again had a disappointing week >>in the gym. >> >>Many of you can probably sense where this going. Now >>that spanking is a thing again in my life I can't help >>but wonder if it could be useful towards providing the >>motivation I need to actually follow through with my >>fitness plan. After all spanking has proven itself >>useful before when it comes to fixing bad habits and >>replacing them with better ones. >> >>As I said in another post: >>"when I was younger I fell into some bad school habits >>where I would procrastinate until the last minute >>before starting school assignments. And since I was a >>pretty smart kid I could get away with doing this and >>still get decent marks. Eventually I became somewhat >>proud of the fact that I was smart enough that I >>didn't really need to put in much effort to get good >>grades. Eventually I made the mistake of bragging >>about this to my mom when I showed her an assignment I >>got an A in even though I didn't start working on it >>until the night before. After hearing that my mom >>marched me into my room, pulled down my pants and >>underwear, and spanked the daylights out of my bare >>bottom with her hand and hairbrush all the while >>lecturing me about the importance of hard work and >>applying oneself. She then called the school to >>contact my teacher and asked for all the information >>about my upcoming assignments and their due dates. She >>then informed me that she was gonna closely monitor my >>school work and that I should expect a spanking for >>every assignment that I did not finish comfortably in >>advance of its due date. I could also expect a >>spanking if she judged I was taking too long to get >>started with an assignment. As you can imagine, a >>handful of spankings later my school habits changed >>drastically and those new habits are still with me to >>this day. Now whenever there is a new assignment I >>like to get started on it right away and finish it >>well in advance of the due date (and I would do this >>regardless of whether or not there is a possible >>punishment at stake). There is no need at all for my >>mom to look over my shoulder to ensure I get my work >>done. I am not the least bit nervous presenting my >>report card to her because I typically have straight >>A's and glowing reports from teachers. I doubt this >>would still be the case if mom didn't spank the >>procrastination out of me those years ago." >> >>I'm wondering if it's a good idea to approach my mom >>and ask her to make me fully accountable towards my >>fitness plan? I have a feeling it will be much more >>difficult to excuse myself out of a workout if I knew >>doing such a thing would mean a workout for my mom's >>hand and hairbrush against my bare bottom! As >>physically unpleasant as going to the gym usually is, >>it's still much more pleasant than a hard spanking. I >>have not yet raised this idea with my mom but I'm >>considering it. >> >>I don't know if anyone here has ever been in a >>situation like this (or know someone else who has) but >>I'm curious if such an arrangement worked out well? > >— > >Cody, that sounds like a wonderful plan. You are very >mature to be holding yourself accountable in this way. >Do let us know if your mother agrees with your plan, >and keep us updated on your weight and fitness >journey. I had a similar arrangement with my dad >growing up, starting around 13 or 14. I am happy to >share details or give you advice if you are >interested. It might give you some motivation or >ideas, or it might give you confidence that it is >indeed possible to be 'spanked into shape'.
