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?
You have to do it long enough to where it becomes a habit. Once you hit that point, you won’t feel as good mentally and physically when you don’t work out. It took over three years for the habit to come about with me, but now I work out 6 day’s a week and appreciate it. I also enjoy the changes it’s made in body.
