    When you have to ask the staff at the front desk to shake up your protein because you can't hold the shaker.

    It hurts to laugh at posts like this because your abs are so sore!!

    Hurts to take off the clothes
    During the work out double checking that there's water in the bottle because it feels so light
    After the work out the same water bottle feels like it's full of a heavy metal even tho it's mostly empty
    Doing the old person swing both legs out of the car and using the door for leverage to get out of the car
    Feeling muscles not felt before or in a long time
    Super hungry the next day
    You realize that you're doing stuff that even just a couple weeks ago were hard to do

    Still new at this so mine aren't as extreme or funny as everyone else's.

    Yours clothes are stuck to your body like a second skin with sweat that you have to ask someone else in the shower room to help pull up your top!

    ...and this is how my Dear Penthouse letter will start...

    LOL! This is why it took me a long time to word my original post!!!!

    When the most muscular bodybuilder in the gym tells you he hardly ever sees girls lift that much weight.

    When your boyfriend refuses to spot you (and there's no one else around) because he thinks you're overdoing it.

    My First personal training session last year... ( arms & back day ) I will never forget it...

    1- Could hardly open my car door when I left the gym
    2 - Attempted to smoke a cigarette on my drive home but literally could not lift my arm off the wheel to bring my hand to my mouth ( eww I know )
    3- In the shower the next morning I had to use a back washer to wash my hair becasue I could lift my arms to my head - I was also bending over )
    4- Had to leave early at my part time gig the next night becasue I couldnt hold two tap beers in my hand at once - too heavy
    5 - My roomate had to help me put on & take my bras off

    no lie.

    You find yourself sitting or laying in the shower because you're too spent to stay on your feet.

    Whew, I thought only I did this :happy:

    When you dont flip the bird to the bad driver who cut ahead of you because your endorphins put you in a forgiving mood.

    THIS. When you feel ****ing amazing after.

    A good shoulder workout means, I can't even lift my arms over my head after or the next day to blow dry or really even do anything with my hair.

    I have gone to work with frizzy hair many times because I couldn't blow dry it.
