    you fall down the stairs because your legs can't hold you! Did that in college once after a particularly grueling workout. Now (10+years later!), I answer that by how much it hurts getting into and out of bed! The morning after a good one is battle between shaky thighs and the need to go to the restroom!

    ...When you take longer than usual to remove your t-shirt because your arms/shoulders/back are all too shaky.
    ...When you have to use your arms to help you "ease down" onto the couch because your legs are screaming.
    ...When the flat mat on the hard gym floor is suddenly as comfortable as the fluffiest mattress.

    You get up to pee...and you wish you could get away with just peeing on yourself.
    (or does that just make me lazy?)

    :laugh: too funny, it's like how long can I hold it so I don't have to move??

    when I can't squat down on the toilet without grimacing because my thighs hurt so bad
    when I can't turn the steering wheel because my arms are sore
    when it takes me 30 min to shower because I can't seem to get all the sweat off

    good times, good times

    When I stall my car at a green light because my leg couldn't hold the clutch in and release it steadily from shaking! LOL.

    (and I've been driving a stick my entire driving life so it's not from not knowing how to drive my car! LOL)

    Your *kitten* feels like jelly.

    You also know you're lifting pretty heavy when you almost wet your pants during a lift. LOL

    That's close to one of my gauges. If my panties are soaked (WITH SWEAT YOU DIRTY BIRDS!) at the end of a workout, I consider it a good one!

    When I feel like Im about to cough up my spleen.

    When I end up lying on the floor in a position that would win a 'planking' competition.

    When Im left panting like a sex pest.
