Yerp. And they become a mental crutch. Not good once your body starts to adapt and it no longer works. You can start overdosing or looking for stronger stuff, just to walk into the gym.
 
Makes sense.. agree
I would go further to say it applies to non chemical stimulation, just geeing yourself up for example. I like to use sparingly
 
well i have been stim free all week and found it ok, thanks for all the great advice everyone. You do get a better approach without them.

Good on you!

Life is much better without peds. The problem with peds is the long term effect they can have on the heart, this is the main problem. Once you start getting problems with your heart, its a downhill spiral after that. You want to keep your heart in tip top shape for as long as possible.
 

Thanks, yes am feeling much more relaxed and at peace after my workout.
