I think I've had an endorphin rush from exercise like, once. At Krav Maga. But since I've also had an ASTHMA attack like, once, also at Krav Maga...well.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
If you do get endorphin rushes from it, I hate you and want to be you.

I don't get endorphin rushes from swimming. Just a mellow reserve. Thank goodness, because there is a thin line for me between a fun high and a not fun high energy. I'm running red in the not-fun high of late. Crazy getting-done, but oh god. Everything in my body revolts.

Right now I'm getting my exercise by moving things around as I pull out things for the Goth - Steampunk rummage sale I'm vending at this weekend.
Also, someone please remind me in a month or so that I REALLY don't need to buy any more lace, fishnet, or open-weave hosiery unless I find an amazing pattern in burgundy or gray. I am All Stocked Up on black (and glittery black) versions of such things.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I get a high from a long yoga session, but I think that's partially due to the breathing and the twisting releasing random crap from my muscles. I do not get a high from running, even when I run 5 times a week, but I embody crankiness if I don't run.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
The only endorphin highs I've ever had were from deep massage and acupuncture/pressure. Not exercise.

Endorphin highs happen from tattoos. That's about it.

Hmm, I should reconsider my lack of tattoos.

Tattoos and ruffly skirts for everyone!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I don't know if I would recognize an endorphin high if it bit me on the nose.
I was just listening to a TTBOOK that included some scientists who were trying to study the elusive and legendary "runner's high" and determined that the levels of a particular cannabinoid increase in humans and dogs but not ferrets after 30 minutes of running (compared to 30 minutes of walking or 30 minutes of resting). So that's a thing that happens, apparently.
