Does an adictive personality , lend itself to bodybuilding?
« on: June 11, 2009, 04:23:28 PM »
In the past I've struggled with alcohol addiction, and working out/ bodybuilding really keeps me straight. But now i feel sort of "addicted" if you will, to working out. If I go a few days without hitting the gym, i start getting antsy. Not that its a bad thing, just wondering if others felt or experienced the same kinds of things.

i definitely think it does. i used to be heavy into alcohol and rec drugs, and after i got into bodybuilding gave them up entirely. i've talked to a ton of guys with similar stories.

Absolutely. I train even injuried, people try to tell me something about sometimes like "don't u think it's too much..." I don't know, I get good and bad things about that, push to the limits, but maybe it's true than sometimes u lose a little bit the sense of what u are doing
