Anyone else have violent thoughts at the gym?

I feel as if I can fuck anyone up when I’m in the zone. I blast music and have the energy to run through a wall. The pump and the endorphins rush gets me thinking about fighting. I don’t know if this is normal or if I’m just messed up in the head because I’m a veteran.

I get a similar feeling if I get the adrenaline rush, especially from heavy lifts. One thing for me is that adrenaline, anger, and the desire to fight sort of go hand-in-hand. They're intertwined and that's probably not the healthiest way to experience adrenaline and anger. Yet I can usually channel it to a sport and avoid getting into some fight. I don't know how else to feel anger without it unlocking some berserk side of me that is down to fight.

With some pre in my system, and some heavy metal of rock going blasting through my headphones? Yep. Definitely. I become aggressive towards the weights

Sounds like you need to stop going to the gym. You seem to have a lot of built up anger there.

Doesn't really sound like a normal nor healthy mindset to have...

If you feel this way why don’t you join one of those ultimate fighting UFC gyms and take on sparring partners and later actually fight real amateur fights and take it from there

I do occasionally have violent thoughts at the gym but by the time my workout is done all aggression is gone.
