In my oh-so-professional opinion, working out sucks. Occasionally you can cheat at life by doing things like rereading Harry Potter on the elliptical (which is a thing I may or may not have done on this very morning), but if you're looking to get extra boss-level inspired, then consider amping up your wardrobe with all these Harry Potter -inspired workout clothes. Even if the treadmill is perhaps the object with the least amount of magic in the entire Muggle world, you can still pretend you don't want to take a nap on it when you're decked to the nines in your Hogwarts swag.
Think of it this way: you secretly always wanted to be on the Quidditch team when you were a kid. And if you had been, no doubt Oliver Wood would have put you through the paces until you had Quidditch plays bleeding out of your eyeballs and you were too tired to stay upright on your broomstick. You were ready for the throw down then when you were a punk kid, so why not now? Just stick on your HP workout shirt and pretend it's all for the glory of your House, and not because you already sunk a year's worth of money into a gym membership and feel too guilty to ignore it! Here, all the Harry Potter gear to break your bank on right now:
