I did tabata style 100m sprints at the end of my workout yesterday and they are disgusting. The only thing worse imo are 400m intervals - towards the end of a session I tend to be running like corky with a foot long trail of drool and snot flying behind me.
Good for you....it is hard BUT you know that you are doing real cardio and not wasting time walking a incline on a treadmill at a slow pace
But so what if someone else is? You're not competing with him physically as in a sport and looks wise you're already head and tails above most people. What drove me was getting my ass kicked and losing in front of my friends. That turned me into a maniac where I had virtually no life but work and train and any free time I used for rest.
You are obviously crying out for therapy.
again, i'm the first one to agree with you that i'm kinda fucked up....however, I celebrate the fact that i'm alittle "off" in terms of this particular psychosis.
Shit, I need to be a celebrity just so my vanity and lengths to maintain it can actually match my status
remember that thread about the day in the life of a female fitness competitor blockhead put up? Seriously, that is basically my life except that i'm not as miserable as a female fitness competitor.
however, I think my mental issues are NOTHING compared to some of the people i know
Great post! If you are not happy wtf is there to lifting weights?

omfg
did you know that i was thinking of hot rod when i typed that.
I remember how he told stories about him and flair partying all night and how he used to wake up and hit the sauna to "flush out all the poison" from the previous night, go train, make the next town, wrestle, party and repeat
