What's your reward to yourself after a good workout. Mines a nice coffee.

    I don't feel like I need one tbh, the feeling of accomplishment and endorphines is enough, true story!

    I always have a post-workout meal that's high in protein and has some carbs in it.... while I don't call this a reward because I consider a post-workout meal a necessity (my goals are strength based, I have to keep my muscles well fed!), it's still a very pleasant way to end a workout. :drinker:

    I have set a schedule of rewards for achievements based on Milestones. The rewards are not food based but more incentive based. So for example when I complete my 5k race I will buy myself a new Bike.

    having a glass of water thats the first thing i do after doing rigorous workout. i think the best reward for this will be achievement of my goal.

    Usually nothing. But if it's a mid-range mile speed workout run or a run over 15 miles, I like to give myself a beer....even if I finish at 11am :)

    a reward after a workout?

    cmon.

    that would be an awful lot of rewards, and they would eventually lose their luster.

    i hope this feeling of needing to reward wears off for you.

    Does a shower count? I don't reward myself after good workouts or we would be celebrating everyday :wink:
