A lot of people say, Oh, I get this high from working out. I've never felt that, maybe because I've worked out for so long it's just a norm for me to push super, super hard. I don't feel the euphoria. But at the end, when it's all done, I feel euphoric. I'm like, Yes, the work is done. You just feel like a glowing feeling inside.
