How To Tell If You’ve Overdone It At the Gym-Legs Edition

1. When you sink into cat stance at karate, you nearly have an unintentional seat on the floor.

2. When you try to get up from a kneeling position and find yourself going nowhere unless you push off with your hands.

3. You hold it as long as possible because the sitting and standing to go to the bathroom is damn near impossible.

4. For only the second time in your life, you truly wish you had been born a guy and could stand to pee (Totally agree with you on this one Sarah!).

5. You need to hold onto both railings with a death grip to even consider making it down the stairs without sitting and scoothing down like little kids.

6. When you have to literally pick each leg up to get in and out of the car. (This one is courtesy of Patrick Parker and I couldn't agree more.)

7. When you realize you forgot to brush your hair and the brush is upstairs, and you decide you can simply live without brushing your hair for one day (OR when the stairs seem like you're climbing Mt. Everest-courtesy of Angelica.)

8. When you realize you're walking like one of those big barrel-chested guys at the gym and it looks as though someone has shoved a bo up your butt as a new spine.

9. When you walk in the dojo thinking you're walking as close to normal as possible considering the world of pain you're experiencing and everyone asks you "What's wrong?"

10. You realize that the whimpering and whining you thought was your kids, is actually you, unconsciously whimpering with pain every time you expect your legs to carry you anywhere.
