No pain, no game gain

by Aaron

When it comes to exercise, if you can’t feel the burn, you’re doing something wrong.

I know when I’ve had a good workout because I’m in pain afterwards. That soreness you feel is the result of tiny tears in your muscles. When you rest afterwards, your body heals itself by building new muscle cells to repair those tears. As a result, these new muscle cells are bigger and stronger than before.

Obligatory quote:

We have the technology. We have the capability to build the world’s first bionic man. Steve Austin will be that man. Better than he was before. Better, stronger, faster.

If you want to get a good workout, you have to push yourself to the limit.

    Or, maybe it was a subconscious thing…you meant “no pain, no gain”, but you were thinking, “No pain, no gain (of muscle), hence, no GAME.”

    I think I know you better than you know yourself…scary thought.

    Anonymous-

    Are you my subconscious? Did I subconsciously write that comment anonymously in order to tease my conscious? Now that would be scary. And I think it might also qualify me as insane.

    Laura-

    Haha, now that’s a good explanation. You know where it’s at ;-)
