Despite being tired following the gym, have you ever noticed that post workout buzz that makes you feel happier?
If the gym becomes less of chore and more addictive, this is because your body is releasing endorphins, which are neurochemicals made by your brain. They additionally work as a drug free pain killer and are associated with many other feel-good activities.
These endorphins increase positive mental states, relating to the term 'endorphin junkie' used frequently by gym goers who are addicted to this 'exercise high'.
Not only can you experience this 'buzz' but frequent exercise has been proven to:
Reduce stress
Boost self esteem
Improve sleep quality
Reduces your risk of depression, dementia and Alzheimer's
