    I love that point when you are really warmed up and the sweat starts dripping off your forehead. I also love that pushed muscles to failure, shaking all over feeling.

    ^^^ This!!

    The feeling that I'm really getting stronger. My current tension on the spinning wheel is much greater now that when I started. If I can have two, the ENERGY that I have from my workouts is amazing!!!

    I love the endorphin rush, when it feels like my hearts going to jump out of my body.

    I love sweat dripping off of me onto the laptop when I'm logging the exercise on here!

    The after-effect that makes me sleep really well at night (and if I may be so bold, the part that affects the boost of testosterone! ;-).

    The endorphin rush really does it for me, though...there are times when the right song is on and I am just GOING and I swear that I am somewhere else entirely and for that moment, all is blissfully right with the world! (this happens a lot in spin classes). I have never dropped acid or anything like that, but can imagine that it must feel something like those amazing endorphins!

    The intensity and the challenge. Especially when you're trying to move heavy weight.

    I love seeing the progress I've made in a short time.. Bootcamp was a big struggle the first time, now I'm universally regarded as a Beast. Plus I love the exhausted high when I'm done.

    too many things to list as there is not just one! lets see, the way I look now from weight lifting, ab muscles, tricep muscles, more sex!, better sex!, the way I feel after finishing a workout, the weight loss, the endorphin rush, the stress relief after hitting the punching bag, the list goes on and on! oh and especially the fact that I love my legs now!
