Just finished 40 mins on the stationary bike - doing a pretty good clip. I feel tired but so de-stressed! I haven't worked out for three days because of work and it feels soo good. I love the way it feels - just need to get it as a habit now. can't wait for the weather to warm up - had 10inches of snow today - too chilly to go out for a walk. Dog is sad too!0

Only when I snort coke off the Elliptical.0

Totally normal. Sometimes I feel such a high that I feel like I could workout again! Surely I would probably fall over if I actually tried this...but...it still feels good!0
-
I especially love it when it hits me during the workout. Then I feel invincible, like I can keep going forever.0

Does anyone else feel like you are on a high after working out? If so, is that normal?
YES!! Endorphins are wonderful!!
Endorphins ROCK!0 -
I do, definitely, though it manifests in my experience with being completely hyper and not being able to stop talking. I'm not normally short of a few words, but post-workout I am ultra "high" and it does take me a while to calm down Must be those famous endorphins.
This is me after an awesome run...it's embarassing that I am such a motor mouth0 -
yup (:
It helps me A LOT when the going gets tough!0 -
yep, it's normal. it's the endorphines0

I'm actually kind of jealous, because this rarely happens for me. I am usually a rock after a workout, because I feel tired and my limbs just feel like they are made out of concrete when I'm done.
If I felt that good after working out, I'd do it a lot more often!
^^This. I wish I achieved that feeling after a workout. But I'm just tired, and worn out!0 -
Guess when I've worked out before I've never pushed myself hard enough cause I have never felt that before. Glad to hear that it's a good thing and I'm doing something right.0
-
I love it. I feel like I can take on the world when I'm done at the gym!0
-
So that begs the question...is it normal to NOT feel this way after a workout?0
-
Yes. It is my drug of choice. I get high every day.
This. Sometimes 2-3 times. And I also agree with the person that said it's awesome when it hits you during your workout. Mine almost always comes after my workout, but occasionally it comes during, and that is the freaking BEST.0 -
Yep..it's normal! It's endorphins & adrenaline!
Dopamine is an endorphin (feel-good chemical) in the body, that makes you feel good.
People who exercise regularly have a mass amount of endorphins afterwards. Nothing to freak out over!0 -
LMAO! Yes! I totally feel this way after working out! I thought there was something wrong with me XD0
-
Yes! if i dont go to the gym i have withdraws lo.. srs tho like everyone said who doesn't have it o.o? its a good feeling0
-
Why else would you go back and exercise again?! I was on such a high Monday, had the best run ever and was seriously smiling most of the day. Felt like I could take on the world!0
-
Great feeling! Whenever I'm grumpy my husband pushes me out the door for a run, because he knows I"ll come back happy (and he's always right).0
-
Yeah baby! I always feel absolutely pumped straight after my workouts and it is awesome, cause I am on such a high, I love it! Bring on the day baby!0
