We could also talk about cleaning your cans, sweating, your favorite sneakers, what reasons you have for not working out, or anything else that's on your mind.
Low Resting Heart Rate?
Have you noticed that since working out your resting heart rate is lower than it was? This is no cause for alarm as most athletes (yup, you're an athlete now) generally have low heart rates.
Runner's World gives us this analogy:...consider a bricklayer lifting bricks.
Working Out But Still Not Fit?
Many people have asked if they are considered healthy if they work out regularly even though they are still overweight.
