If that doesnt work, try one of these... from http://caligal.wordpress.com/2008/01/21/gym-excuses/

• The “I Can’t Shower At The Gym” excuse: (This is a great excuse as it can be both a before-work and an after-work excuse!) I can’t go to the gym because I have to go to work after [am excuse]/ I have to run an errand after [pm excuse] and I can’t shower at the gym. I caught athlete’s foot from the gym shower once and it impossible to get rid of so I just cant do it!
• The “I Can’t Get Ready At The Gym” excuse: (This is a variation on the first, but different enough that it warrants it’s own excuse line!) I can’t go to the gym before work because I would have to shower there [see excuse #1] and get ready for work there. This means that I would have to prepare my work clothes and bring them with me and I just can’t tell what I will feel like wearing after I am done working out. Plus, I cant do my makeup there because the lights are all wrong. Plus, I cant blow dry my hair there because there are only two blow-dryers and there is always someone using them.
• The “It’s Too Late” excuse: Oh, its 6pm and I am just leaving work now. By the time I get to the gym, it will be 6:30, then change & find an empty machine, 7:00, then work-out for 30 minutes and go home and shower, it will be 8:00 before I am able to start making dinner and that is just too late because we wont be eating until 9:00pm!
• The “I’m Too Tired/It Was a Long Day” excuse: I’m too tired; my day was emotionally and physically exhausting. After such a long day, I really deserve to go home and relax!
• The “Poor Dog” excuse: I’ve got to get right home. The poor dog has been locked up for too long so I must get home to let her out!
• The “Bad Weather” excuse: (A combination of the Its Too Late & Poor Dog excuses, with a twist) It’s raining out and it will take way too long to get to the gym. The people here in CA just don’t know how to drive in the rain, so it will take twice as long and then I will get home way too late and the poor dog will be stuck for way too long!
• The “No Clothes” excuse: (This excuse covers a multitude of items because there are soooo many things to forget!) I can’t go to the gym tonight because I forgot my workout clothes/sports bra/sneakers/socks/hair elastic/etc. at home and I obviously can’t workout without it/them!
• The “My Night to Cook” excuse: (This is a great one because although it is similar to the It’s Too Late excuse, it shifts the blame to another.) I can’t go to the gym tonight because it is my night to cook and even if I leave work right on time, I just cant get to the gym, home, shower, and start dinner before K gets home. And, it’s just unfair to him to make him wait for dinner on a night that I am cooking!

Can I just say, this is the most comprehensive list I've ever seen for excuses not to go to the gym. If I'm struggling tomorrow, I'm going to try to remember some of them:rotfl:
