• How much does missing the gym affect your day?

Recently broke my hand. Been out of the gym for a couple weeks. I always went early in the morning before work. Since the very first day that I've been out of the gym my entire mood has plummeted. I even took the first couple days off work because I was like fuck everything. It's like I'm completely dependent on the gym to function. It's become such a part of my day like brushing my teeth that if I don't do it I feel like the entire day is a wash. So many decisions I make throughout the day are based around my goals. Like what I eat, if I should have some beers with my friends or co-workers after work, if I should get to bed early, etc. When I'm not in the gym I just feel like fuck it might as well eat like shit and live like a shmuck cuz what's the point of eating all this protein if I'm not working my muscles. It's such a mind-fuck lol.

Anyone else get this way?

I'll usually just work out with longer sets my next time in the gym or take a hybrid of what I missed and what I'm scheduled to do and mesh them together. If I miss on a Saturday I'll try to make sure to get in a workout on Sunday. There have also been times when I've missed and that was it. I just missed and the workout never got made up.

Yea I don't know why I let it mess with my day so much. I think the fact that I workout first thing in the morning made me more dependent on it to start my day. If I worked out at the end of the day I feel like missing wouldn't affect my day too much because it's already over.
