Do you get pi**ed off when you cant make it to the gym?

I only got back from my holidays in the Canaries on Monday.. I had planned to go to the gym today after work (havnt been in 10 days now).. Just as I was about to leave a crisis in work happens and now I am stuck here until about 7.. I cant go to the gym then as I have plans made at 9pm back home out in Blanch so I will just about make it home, have some dinner and get back out.

Im going mad I cant make my workout.. I was actually looking forward to it.. I suppose I am glad I am pi**ed off about it.. A lot of times in the past I would nearly be looking for an excuse not to go.. Anybody else ever get annoyed when they are psyched up to go for a workout and then for reasons out of your control you cant go?

Not the gym particularly but just activity in general.

yes I get annoyed and frustrated when I can't do whatever I planned. Sometimes life just gets in the way and I can actully handle that better than I used to. What I can't hack still is when I've overdone things and I make it to the gym but my body just does not want to perform. Frustrates the hell out of me.

I get a bit angsty when I don't make it.

I especially get pissed off if it happens a few times in a row, so that instead of three sessions per week I only make one. I'm a creature of routine anyway but I always worry about the gains I'm losing through not being able to go and it's always a relief when I get back and pack in a really tough session.

No physical activity for 2 days and I start to get edgy, 3 days grumpy, 4 days is a no go area.

Roll on 1pm for the next session.

Not any more to be honest - a day, a couple of days doesn't make any difference in the long scheme, and the extra rest can often be a good thing.

I'm of a certain vintage now that I've learned that there are so many more important things in life - its all about putting things in perspective.

yeah I get pissed off.
I dunno why though. I am sure its some kind of withdrawl of serotonin or something.
I also get pissed off because I keep thinking of all my momentum being lost.

And sometimes if work gets crazy busy and I cant make the gym for a few weeks I find it very hard to get back in to it.

Yeah it really wrecks my head! I usually go 3-4 times a week and this week only got once. And the reason I didnt get to go is due to excessive alcohol intake! Lots of parties etc these days. So not only am I missing going to the gym, I'm drinking too much which makes me feel even worse! It really makes me mad and spend way too much time worrying about it!

Do you get pi**ed off when you cant make it to the gym?
