When I was a kid I was always motivated by TV cartoons who were buff like Marvel and DC Comics superheroes, He-Man, and even Johnny Bravo. I always wanted to look like that but I had to wait until I got older so it wouldn't stunt my growth. But as soon as I was like 17 I started, got a pair of dumbbells and started working out in my room, using 2 chairs for bench. Soon I decided I needed heavier weights and more stations (also needed something better for legs than just dumbbells) so I went to a gym and been there ever since.
I love working out because it's a good investment, I feel it's a good way to become the strongest version of myself and not only physical strength but strong in the mind too and life. I like the fact that it takes a lot of effort to archive a good body and it's something only I can do and nobody else, can give ME the body I want and it will be a success I did by myself because only you can make yourself look fit. And it's also so much fun to workout and looking good makes me feel good. I've always played sports so exercising was never a huge deal I just waited to get older to start because I was afraid of the "if you workout you will stop growing" myth.
