that feels better

[thoreau]

god I feel better when I get a good workout in at the gym. Last night Michael (bibliocub and I did a pretty aggressive arms workout - and today - my energy is up and I feel 200% better across the board; including my mood and attitude. Tommy notdefined is right - the gym is a drug - and I'm addicted. Tonight? Shoulders and back! Rock on crouton!

Yes exercise is good.I just got home from doing laps at the track at the local high school.I did 12 to start with and by the end of next week I'll be back up to 20 .I work so much better when I do this. Never should have let myself stop last fall .I paid a price and gained 15 lbs that I don't want or need. Gotta get back in shape so I can go on those 500 mile per day long rides on my motorcycle in the summer. That extra baggage messes up my power to weight ratio and the bike doesn't go as fast then!

gawd but I wish my body/psyche had that kind of reaction to the gym or exercise in general. Most often it has the opposite effect on me, even depression sometimes.

Maybe my body can't produce endorphins?
