I often hear about people talking about how much energy they get from going to the gym, how they get more done at work etc etc
But whenever Im done at the gym I just wanna go to sleep
When you finish your workout you should feel as if you could do a little be more, but don't. It is when you overdo a workout that it ends up making you more tired then energized. Never workout longer then 90 minutes. In fact, 45 minutes is ideal, provided you don't spend it standing around chatting it up with other folks who are also taking too long a break between sets.
