The thing that nobody tells you about going to the gym is how sore you get afterward. Everyone always talks about how good it makes you feel, and how much it will improve your life. "I've never felt better, I feel like I could lift a car!" All the gym bros say, shouting from the high of their endorphins. And they're right, most of the time. 

The feeling of leaving the gym after a strenuous session makes you feel like you could accomplish anything. Your thoughts are clear, your pores are open from sweat, and you can tackle anything that comes your way. BUT… the next day… you feel as though you've been run over by a train. Your muscles are stiff and sore, aching for rest. Going up the stairs after leg day feels like trying to haul lead bricks up… the stairs. Opening a jar after arm day, good luck babe.
