    This. Lol. My gym is close enough to walk to and from...so I'm pumped up my entire walk home, then I eat a lot of food and crash.

    Just walked back from a great back workout and read that while lying in bed with my food sitting next to me. Couldn't be closer to your comment if I tried :P

    It depends on the time of the day. If I do it in the morning, I have more energy. If I do it at night (like I usually do) I pass out soon after my shower.

    Some people feel energized after a workout. Some people never do. I'm one of the one who never, ever does. From my perspective, it's hard to imagine someone feeling energetic after a workout, but I know it happens.

    Energetic, thirsty and hungry right after then a few hours later I'm tired, sore and wishing I could stay the rest of the day in bed.

    Depends on the session. After a long run usually starving and in need of a sit down for a while. After a speed session usually pretty drained.

    After a recovery session generally pretty relaxed and comfortable.

    Totally depends on the type of workout. After resistance and strength training and a session with trainer i feel like a hot shower and a nap. After a hike or elliptical first thing in the morning, it increases overall energy.

    Awesome, because I pushed myself to do it.

    Just as it's not necessary to restrict whole food groups, only eat X, Y and Z at times A, B and C and so on -- and all the other micromanagerial bad advice we get about eating, in my opinion it's not necessary to absolutely kill yourself working out to see benefits, assuming your goal is a moderate calorie burn and overall improved health markers.

    I guess if you're a competitive athlete there's a different standard, but I'm not one. Basically I try to break a sweat and feel like I've moved, but not completely exhaust myself.
