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?

Morning sprint sets are stressfull. Sometimes my stress begins at night time and I can not sleep enough (Did I say I'm in love with swimming before?). If I can do my sets within target, I'm happy, if not, a bit upset but motivated.
I like drill sets more especially in the week-ends. I have more time, I enjoy my swim.
When my right shoulder is silent in the stretching part, I am very happy, but it clicks most of the time.
When there is a fast swimmer in the next lane, I am faster, if the swimmer is female I am much faster (I don't know why) :woot: .
I hate kick sets anyway.
