I am wondering if anyone has noticed a correlation between type of workout and what kind of mood they are in afterward. Sometimes when we get over-the-top kick sets I end up feeling totally drained, and not in a good way. Often when we do a sprint oriented workout I feel really pumped afterward, even if I got nauseous while swimming. After a long slow distance workout I'll be totally exhausted, but in a good way. Sometimes I'm so tired I can barely lift my arms to shampoo my hair but I feel great, last night I just wanted to be put out of my misery.
Do you find that certain types of workouts put you in certain types of moods?

Come to think of it, maybe it wasn't the kick sets as much as the way I was totally useless on the following set even though I was trying very hard. Maybe I was trying too hard. The coach asked us to do 100s on 2min at best time + 10s and I could barely manage best time + 20s. Grrr. And then he told us to do 200 kick for warmdown... I know my kick needs work but that was just cruel.
