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?
I am always in a good mood after swimming :D , even if I struggled through practice:frustrated: . I swim at 5:30 am, and there are mornings when it is really hard to dive in, but I ALWAYS feel good when it is done :agree: , even if my shoulders or legs are sore. Swim workouts are the BEST way to start the workday :agree: . I drive to work afterward with wet hair (there is a gym at work and I finish drying it there) and an overall good feeling. Since I began Masters in October, I have always been in a good mood after practice :) .
