Motivate yourself by looking at other people in the gym and giving yourself targets
3. Lack of resources (money, facilities, equipment, etc.) -
Suffering from lack of money, try running or freehand that doesn't require much money or training

Disabilities never stop anyone, but maybe a special case and special exercises.

Old guys hit the gym all the time, thus age doesn't matter if you want to be a begin exercising
Out of shape, but once you start exercising you'll set yourself targets and get in shape soon
