You feel really good inside after a workout that makes you exhausted, very tired, but good.
Be sure to drink plenty of water! It will keep you hydrated and ready for more.
Also, rest is also important. If your muscles are very tired, there is nothing wrong with doing some excersies to work out the soreness, but if you work out really hard for days without getting rest, you can actually damage muscle tissue. If you try to do pushups tomorrow and you find you can only do a few before it starts hurting real bad, stop, do some arm stretches, and take a break.
