[El Scorcho]

At times such as this when im either reallly frustrated or really angry are times when i get really pumped and feel like pumping iron or running a three minute mile. Im suprised im able to focus my energy in such a way...

Ne body else ever feel this way?

When you are really upset your body responds to the stress by releasing adrenalin into the blood stream. You body is guessing that you are in or anticipating a life or death situation. Our bodies aren't really designed for modern life, it's a relatively new situation.

You want to do the physical activity because of the adrenalin. It would be a good thing to go for a run or lift weights. You should do it. It would relieve some of the stress your body is under, you will feel better for it (more of our primitive physiology). In fact it would be a very healthy thing to do, not just for the exercize, but for the stress relief.

Sorta a fight or flight response then? Last night it was bout 1130 pm and i had just gotten off ga a while ago... my window was open and i was sitting in bed trying to go to sleep. All of a sudden i heard what sounded like jets flying over. This freaked me out since all aircraft was grounded. Then i heard a sound like what you would hear from a plane but it lasted a long time... this freaked me out even more since i live a little close to San Onofre NUCLEAR power plant near san diego california. I was afraid it too was being attacked...

freaky eh?




oh n by the way... i tuned into the radio this morning to see what those jets were and they WERE infact jets that were given permission to fly... they were carrying troops and medical supplies and things like that.

Pumping iron??

If it was legal for me to own a weapon, I know some people that I wouldn't mind pumping lead (into).

whenever i have any life stress, i usually find some solace at the gym. when i'm pissed it relieves a lot of tension, and when i'm in any emotional stress i get to channel that stress on my focus. i usually go to the gym to play some b-ball though. the fact that you have other things on your mind while running up and down other than girls, money, love, BOMBS is kinda nice.

yea, i'd be lost without the gym

I'm that way too. Whenever I'm angry or upset, exercising or any hard work is a great stress reliever.

Hmmm . . . and why isn't it legal for you to own a weapon?? I thought it was only convicted criminals and the mentally insane that aren't allowed to own a weapon. :eek:

thats cause some poor girls fall for the "Hey baby, Were the last two people on earth, and I've never had a woman before" line...

Back on topic:
Instead of playing B-Ball, try Raquet(sp?) Ball. You can play by yourself if you have to, and you can just friggen SLAM that ball as hard as you want... just make sure your not in its return flight path :D

I used to play when i had a free guy membership. I dont now, but i would like to. Its awesome excercise too. Especially when you have to move twice the amount when you play by yourself.

[g222leav]

hmmm, playing with yourself requires twice as much work???

sounds like fuzzy math to me.
