    Your shirt is drenched in sweat no matter what the a/c is like and you are literally freaking shaking as you leave the weight room. That's the point I get to every single time. If I don't feel like that I get pissed off with myself 'cause otherwise I just think I am wasting my time. 'train insane or remain the same!'

    When you are doing the stair climber and sweat so much that puddles are forming on stairs and you almost slip in your own sweat

    When you're so in the zone that you don't realise you've had the same song was on repeat on your ipod for your whole workout (happened twice now)

    Background: I'm in Karate right now, but have a lot of past experience in Judo. When we have a Judo focus at the school I go to, everyone who knows my background tries to beat me up, because 'hey, I just threw a big Judo guy that makes me awesome!' It doesn't matter that I've gone king of the hill against 15 other people already, have 10 more to go, and am exhausted...still counts.


    When your fiancee wakes up and comes downstairs to find you passed out on the rug in the foyer because the stairs were just too much effort.

    When you need "Swimmers Ear" after a Spinning class to clear your ear canal of the sweat that ran into it!

    When you fall off the bike rather climbing off, because you no longer have the use of your legs.

    HAHAHA - yep!

    Of when you step off the elliptical and quick grab the control panel because you realize you have zero feeling in your feet!

    You get home and your daughter is doing things that would normally annoy you and your husband is complaining about something and it doesn't bother you in the least.

    Nothing bothers me after a good workout.

    you fall asleep doing your cool down stretch

    ^^Bahahaha! Too Funny.

    1. When your husband hurries into the living room where you're working out and asks if you're ok because you're breathing so hard he thinks something's wrong with you.
    2. When you continue to sweat hours after you've had your shower.
    3. When you can't pull your sports bra over your head
    4. When your legs cramp so bad after a work out that you have to walk on your tip toes

    When I leave the weight room, one of three things is true;
    - Walking to the car park is slow, staggered and very, very painful.
    - Lifting my arms to drive my car is very, very painful.
    - Trying to stand up once I've driven home is very, very painful.

    You have trouble holding your arms up to shampoo your hair after your workout. And... you're starving but can hardly make yourself any food because you're so wiped out.
