Is it normal that i lift weights when angry

ive gotten into bodybuilding so much and i love it, i dont think working out is a burden anymore, i actually enjoy it its like an addiction. it feels great the blood pumping into my muscle. and its so motivating to see my strength going up. I just love the dedication and hard-gaining earned results you get if you train enough and stay positive. Whenever i feel angry about something i just love to pump iron, kinda helps me control my thoughts and get rid of them, and understand myself. Is it normal?

    It's not just normal, it's healthy! The adrenaline from the anger gets put to a more productive use. It'll probably keep your stress and anger in check and it'll help you sleep better too. Keep it up!

    One time a girl betrayed me, that i liked and she "liked" me, and i was so mad i was physically shaking. The only thing that helped was benching heavy weight.

    That's awesome! I find I workout so much better when angry, lol. Some bitch really pissed me off at Subway today when she did not hold the door for me. So, to blow off steam, I went for a long fast walk. I felt sooo much better after! :)

    good for you, its a good release of energy and its awesome you channel it to something that helps you and keeps you fit, instead of punching walls or starting fights

    Completely normal. When something has me riled up, I run it off. Nothing to clear the mind like a nice run and a hot shower.
