Your comment on excercise being the new crack actually ain’t a million miles away. Apart from generally feeling better or should I say smug, after coming back from lunchtime obviously haven being to the gym. Excercise increases serotonin (happy chemicals) and endorphins (basically heroin/ morphine made inside your body). The latter unsurprisingly gives you a bit of a buzz and as we all know is pretty addictive.
Hence it ain’t all about being buff and competitive
we can actually get addicted to, well, ourselves…
