If I may suggest something that helped me: Find a program, do a program, find a new program.

Nobody can stay motivated doing the same thing forever. I recently ended an 8-week training program targeting strength and mass, then froze my membership and started running and am working my way into a steady calisthenic program (bodyweight exercises, easily done outdoor with a pull-up bar and other jungle gym stuff). Diversify and keep your original goal ever everything-- for me, its meeting West Point physical exam requirements, and having confidence in my strength. How I do it is therefore flexible. Those apps ain't gonna work for you, they're for you to look back on and be proud that you worked, that's it.

If you mainly run and are losing motivation, fighting time constraints etc. but don't want to find something different, change up your run. As in, change up how you're running, short distances or interval training etc.
