Where my exercise bros at?

Best high, also only high I experience.
How many miles was it? Feel free to use kilometers.
>tfw you can walk up the stairs several times without feeling tired.
I have come a long way.
>>25862735
I need that feel again. It's been awhile

Just cracked 5ks in 20 minutes, no competitive level but its improvement. Yeah I know what you mean, I remember the first time I ran a kilometer without having to gasp through my mouth, best feeling.

>5ks
Decent, as long as you see yourself improving. Good luck with those lung/endurance gains.

Do it brah.

I'm still 22, but I remember doing cross country in high school. I was an awkward chubby kid during it, only standing at 5'6". I always felt slow, incapable, and out of shape.
Nowadays I run for the thrill of leaving mortals behind as a 6'3", 60% legs, human gazelle.
Exercise helps me with my depression too. It's just hard to keep it up sometimes.

Might go back to running from weightlifting. Cardio seems to have a much better endorphin release than weightlifting.

Really? I always felt better with a full body pump.
Also bump, exercise the best
>tfw runner's low at the moment because ankle pain that refuses to go away
I really enjoy running so it bothers me more than it should.
Fuck I miss those days.
I lift now and do sprints. Lifting makes me feel good but less of a euphoria and more of a confidence. Sprinting just makes me feel like shit but it's just so good for everything else.
Started hitting the gym again guys! Feels pretty good but I hate that I see a few people from my HS there sometimes and am forced to interact
>tfw they ask what I do
>am NEET
it's the only good gym here so there's no escape. I just want to lift in peace

Try biking or swimming. They're low stress on joints.
>tfw jogging through the snow and listening to Chopin on your phone
Try it sometime robots

>tfw you used to run cross country in middle school and had a 5:30 mile
>middle school
guys, after being an edgy teen and smoking for 3 years, idk how to into running again.
I can go up a flight of stairs okay, but running for a parking lot length winds me a little. I start breathing hard, at least.
Any tips?
hey experts, where do i get started on exercise/fitness?
ayo, anyone else get /anklepain/ or /kneepain/ around the 6k mark?
can't stay lit too much longer than that but end up doing 10k anyway, injuring myself to the point where i'm limping the next day
bought some ankle wrap and a knee stabilizer, while that do the trick f a m s? i wanna fly again

Whatever you're comfortable with my man. How much movement do you do a day if you don't mind my asking? I'm sure if you took extra measures to get more movement in your day every day you could definitely get the results you want.

You got a heat cream for that my man? Even an ice pack would be a good thing to do after a days jog. Rubbing in anti inflammation cream before and after your jog helps me minimize cramping and shit
>>25864368
thanks, i do have some and i'll try this
>>25864347
my level of exercise is basically zero. should i just go out and hit a running track until i crap out? i hear al lot about how great you feel after exercise / mental benefits and all, wouldn't mind getting in on that
