How to deal with post-workout anxiety?
I have been trying to workout consistently lately. I’m only used to long walks but lately I have been doing 30-40 minutes of strength training. For only a couple of days, I can already see how it makes me sleep early + good sleep at night. It’s my 4th day now, but for the past two days I’ve noticed it’s making me anxious from minute 1 up to 3-4 hours post-workout.
The soreness, muscle ache, or panting is making me overthink about my health. I have been checking my blood pressure and even my heart rate is not even over 100 but it felt like I’m “palpitating” and that I am catching my breath… Even though I’m not. The feeling goes away when I stand up and do something, but it consumes me when I’m at rest.
How do I deal with this?
