Don’t Workout if You’re Tired or Exhausted

Exercising to get rid of superfluous energy. Not exercising as a form of virtue-practice.

What is the benefit of exercise? Not to force yourself to sleep only 5 hours, wake up at 4am, and do some insanely intense workout. No— exercise as a form of expelling excess energy, power and force from us. It requires we are well rested, fully recovered and brimming over with physiological energy and force!

In other words, if you’re still tired in the morning sleep more and sleep until you literally don’t want to stay in bed anymore, and you’d prefer to get up and do stuff. And during the day if you’re exhausted, just take a nap!
