To have no good reason to avoid doing something.
Hear it in real life
Are you going to start exercising?
Yes, I've got no excuse now that the gym is next door.
The station is only five minutes away, so I have no excuse not to walk there.
The mistake everyone makes
Not: I have no excuse for going to the gym.
Say: I have no excuse not to go to the gym.
“No excuse for going” gives the opposite meaning; “no excuse not to go” means there is no good reason to avoid it.
