One of the reasons you train is because of how it makes you feel on a biochemical level - TIP

Why do we exercise?

Some exercise for the health benefits. Some exercise to maintain a great appearance. Some are in it for mood elevation, stress reduction, relaxation, or endorphins.

In other terms:

• Health benefits
• Image
• Stress reduction/relaxation
• Endorphins (bochemical addiction :)) = Mood elevation

Endorphins?

In short, one of the reasons you train is because of how it makes you feel on a "biochemical level".

By the way, this is different than training for the adrenaline kick!
