Mostly true, except I look like someone hosed me down and I’m gasping like a fish out of water.
NGL I pretty much only stare at people on my cardio days and that’s usually because I’m just looking in a direction after workout and I’m waiting to catch my breath enough that I can think again.
I might be going too hard on cardio days but it’s the best way to get that work out high.
Doing cardio while high makes it almost sound fun. Gods I hate cardio.
Oh no, not while high
You push so hard you hit that exercise high where reality melts away and there’s only the movement and breath.
One foot after another.
One pedal pump after another.
There is no gym.
There are no people.
There is no me.
A flowing dance of rhythm.
Move. Breathe. Move. Breathe. Move. Breathe.
And the thunderous applause of my heart.
There’s nothing else
If someone asked me where I was, what day it was, or even who I was I wouldn’t know.
That state is what I push for when doing cardio.
Sometimes I even hit it during my sets and I basically run through my whole workout a second time due to how awesome I feel.
And THEN you get the dopamine rush that makes you high
Counter-point: I literally actually exercise high and lost a ton of weight because of it. Smoke/vape + music + late-night workout = I actually got in better shape.
Good for you man, that’s awesome!
Weird how everyone reacts to things differently. Got a couple friends who love working out high. I can’t think of many things that sound worse
That’s what happens when you get older and you realize you haven’t taken a look at yourself in a while. Then you have that sigh and “are you fucking serious?” moment
Smile, look away, this is the way.
This seems dumb. You instantly lose the staring contest?
Nah just keep staring at that same spot, eventually they’ll move, but your still intently staring at the wall or a chair.
