I can imagine people having fun getting lost in the flow of playing a competitive sport. I’ve also heard some people experience a post-workout high. But does anyone actually feel pleasure in the moment while lifting weights, jogging, cycling, etc?
If so… what does it feel like? Is there anything the rest of us can do to cultivate such a mindset?
No. Working out sucks. But after smoking for 15 years and finally quitting, getting too fat over the past 4, now I’m trying to be healthier. I do actually feel kind of better, even more than when I quit smoking.
So the working out part sucks but the other parts are better because of it in my experience.
