Do you ever feel guilty plopping down on the couch and gaming for like 8 hours straight? Sometimes it’s just not satisfying, what’s the matter? Well, working out before picking up the sticks makes gaming better! Every. Freaking. Time.
The Science You Need to Know
When WebMD isn’t telling me I have cancer, it tells me interesting facts about what happens to the body after a workout:
When you exercise, your body releases chemicals called endorphins. These endorphins interact with the receptors in your brain that reduce your perception of pain.
Endorphins also trigger a positive feeling in the body, similar to that of morphine. For example, the feeling that follows a run or workout is often described as “euphoric.” That feeling, known as a “runner’s high,” can be accompanied by a positive and energizing outlook on life.
The human body is amazing.
