Do you ever get too stressed out to work out?

[biteme]

I've got too much on my plate right now. Can't get in the frame of miind to work out. Hope it doesn't last long, because I do the heavy duty workout. Only twice a week. I'm gonnna turn to flab. Nooooooooooo.

Read the post about the woman who got stuck to the couch. That should get you to workout.

I switch it up. Lately, I've been doing chest, legs, shouders on Friday and back, arms on Sunday. There's no logic in it. I just work out when I can. If I miss a day, the days change. I can work out at home, but don't like to as much.

probably because you train at home biteme

when i trained at home, my weights were nothing more than nighttime toe stubbers when i was stressed (exams etc)

the gym is my sanctuary...its just me vs the weights

too stressed to sleep, too tired to workout

Hey, bigbro.....

Use your stress at home as your motivation to workout.......stress and anger/frustration should feed your fury in the gym. Think about the shit that angers you and focus on that when you are lifting. Pour out all your anger in to your reps and sets......use that shit to build you up and tear it all down, thus when you get home you'll have the proper mindstate to lay down the rules of the house and make them succumb to your WILL and FURY!!!!!

nugga.

I agree...use this stuff as motivation to get into the gym so you can release all that stress. You need that release so you can think clearly and operate as normally as possible. Good Luck!

Its easy for me to say, but anything that affects your central nervous system will affect your workout. However, the plus is that you have the power. Remember, you don't go from being a good athlete to a crap one over night. Losing your form takes effort in the manner of dodging the gym. Don't be afraid to drop your workout load to maybe 75% of previous volume for a couple of weeks and I guarenteed you'll get right back into it and that you'll come back an even better athlete both mentally and physically. Had a few problems a few months ago and it affected me, but glad I took my buddy's advice above...

good advice chicken nugget.
there's been times when i'm too busy and stressed to get a good workout in- all i can think about is all i have to do, but usually, i use stress to fuel my workout. i get mad at the weights and i push them harder.

I find that the second best way to relieve stress is a good hard body pounding workout. ESPECIALLY legs. When I find I"m more stressed, I make a concerted effort to be to the gym more, even for 1/2 hour for some supersets.

thanks hon. i'm not so cute when i'm lifting. in fact, i lose all feminism, swearing at the weights and sweating and not caring what i look like.
its my stress reliever so i'm happy and pleasant the rest of the day.
sometimes, more pleasant than others.

That's how you should look when you are lifting.......it's a great segway in to fucking....

I'd like to get you after you're done deadlifting.......have you work against me while I'm hitting you from the back.....grrrrrrrrr

I want THAT!~

Biteme you need to get out and just walk when you don't feel like lifting.
It will get your blood and endorphins going!

Take your daughter with you and you two can enjoy being out doors together.
