I'm not talking about injury pain, but like exhaustion, aching muscles, pushing yourself when your mind is telling you it just can't go anymore. I'm a rower and a lot of times the thought of being exhausted and having my muscles burn keeps me from performing my best and I'd like to overcome this. Any ideas/advice?

Honestly, they get rid of all the toxins that are being released, and soothes muscles like nothing else. Your body is adjusting to the exercise, hang in there and you'll push through. Ahh yeah I really want to go and get a massage, but I haven't gotten around to making an appointment.
