Strength Weight Training: Anything and Everything II

[burge13]

How do I get more motivated to do strength training - any advice? At the moment I get in twice a week and do what I have to do but frankly I don't enjoy it. Not really interested in "getting swole" as I feel like I'm fine now and don't want to add bulk to impede my running.

What's some common non-aesthetic goals people set to guage improvement with strength work? One rep max tests for squats and other things?

Wouldn't be any different to your running though, you're trying to beat your previous time (weight) over time etc. Literally the same self motivation just for strength/weights not times
