🚨 Confession: I work out every single day…and I absolutely hate it. 🚨 People say exercise gives you endorphins, makes you happy, blah blah blah. Sure, maybe that’s true for some—personally, all it gives me is a bunch of sweaty clothes and an urgent need to lie down. But I still do it. Why? Because it keeps me from turning into a petty, caffeine-fueled goblin by lunchtime. Let’s be real. If I don’t get that morning sweat in, I’m ready to start a fight with my inbox and plot revenge on every coworker who says “Let’s circle back.” So I drag myself out, do the burpees, the squats, the existentially long planks, because somehow this torture keeps me sane, employed, and slightly more tolerable. Anyone else forcing themselves into endorphin land for the sake of basic human decency? 😂 #WorkOutToSurvive #NotForTheLoveOfIt #BetterCoworker
Previously when I started working out, I used to feel the same but now I have grown to loving working out and honestly I just have to do it to remain sane.
I work out on my days off. It keeps me moving and not sitting on the couch binge watching something 😂
With you to an extent. I’ve never gotten the “runner’s high” or any other sort of happy brain chemicals from exercise. Fortunately, I don’t hate it. Definitely don’t like it, though!

5dI need to be like you. It wouldn’t even be that hard since my husband has collected an entire cardio area over the years and it’s just sitting unused in our basement, taunting me. All I need to do is drag my happy tail down the stairs and onto the equipment for a few minutes. Do I though? No. Instead I drink my coffee and sugar-free creamer like the lovely caffeine-fueled goblin I am. 😂
