Do you ever get addicted going to the gym?

[Anonymous]

When you stop for a bit it's really hard to get back into it, but once you do you want to go a lot. I fell on my back a couple of weeks ago at a show, and there's a slight pain in my lower back that gets worse everytime I work out. But I haven't gone in a few days and reallllyyy want to go.

Do you ever get addicted going to the gym?
-Yes sort of, but then again I get addicted not working out the same way.

At any rate, maybe it's the way you're working out. There are workouts that hurt people, like the clean and jerk and quite frankly, any other jerking workout. How about lifting more than you can handle? You can do more reps with much less weight when it comes to your back.

This reminds me... I have to do pull ups or something, lol.

I know exactly how you feel.

Haha, I haven't been able to go this week and this is exactly how I feel.

[kaylaS91]

yessss, I definitely do. I generally go at least 4-5 times/week if my schedule allows for that. I know that even if I'm tired or not feeling 100%, the guilt if I don't go will be worse than how I'm feeling, if that makes sense.
So I'm usually a gym addict. Kinda taking it easy now with exams and stuff but I know that once I'm done on Tuesday, I'll go back to the gym hardcore. :P

[Asker]

Yeah, I feel that way about being tired as well, I know if I just decide not to go I'll regret it the next day.

lol not yet i gotta admit, but maybe in a few months. i kinda go because i have to, or when i gotta exert energy.

I haven't been going to the gym long enough to get that feel. I'm skinny so I'm working on improving myself and gaining weight. I'm guessing that as soon as I start seeing visible results, I probably won't be able to stop going there.

[Asker]

Yeah, this is where I'm at. Once you see small improvements you'll obsess over it more.

About 3 years ago I had to be at the gym twice a day went everyday unless it was close. Battling depression and was single I was losing weight and the high from weightlifting made me feel good

[Asker]

Like legitimate depression?

[tenchu11]

Yeah like... if I died Tommorow no one would care also drinking 3-4 nights a week

[LaBellaNena415]

Yes I am pretty addicted, my rest days feel like torture at times

[Complicated-Soul]

I used to have a fitness class in 9th grade and I did fill the addiction.

[Randomguy8182]

I'm not addicted to the gym I'm addicted to the results

[Asker]
