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?

    But also no because I find weight training to be exceptionally boring.

    Same, that’s why I prefer cardio. I can do something with my brain and hands while burning calories at the same time. However, when I push myself to lift more, it’s very rewarding, especially when you get to the point where you feel like you could lift the entire fucking rack with how much you’re lifting.
