When is YOUR happy hour?

I once had an awesome trainer who developed this great motivational idea: happy hour.

The hour immediately following your workout - you've got all sorts of great feeling hormones and chemicals racing around in your brain/body. They make you feel great - especially happy. Happy it's over. Happy you did it. Happy you went.

So a phrase I say quite often is: "... it's my happy hour!..."

It's cute, it's a much better happy hour than one spent in some bar, and it always makes me smile.

So, America. I'm on my happy hour. I play roller derby and our practices are two hours twice a week. And nothing feels better than lounging on my couch after practice!

So, again I ask you: When is YOUR happy hour?

    I go to a crossfit class every weekday at 5. All us regulars call it our "happy hour" as crazy as that sounds!

    "much better happy hour than one spent in some bar" is an arguable statement.

    My happy hour is usually between 10-11 am. I work out after breakfast & house cleaning. I always feel great earning my morning shower. That is also the time my babies are napping

    I'm done with my workouts usually around 6:30 PM, at least during the week. Then it truly IS happy hour, because my hubby already has my vodka drink poured and waiting for me. What a guy!
