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?
I’m addicted to my bike, I love riding on my bike and its super addicting to go fast and almost getting hit by cars.
This, except for the part about cars. :) I get to see all over my town and the area at large first hand, breathe fresh air and get a workout. Cycling rules!
I love riding my bike. Any kind of bike. Road, mountain, cruiser. Going hard, going easy, uphill, downhill, it’s all fun as fuck.
I like running when I’m not super fat like I am right now. There’s something great about running a faster pace for the last half of a race and feeling stronger at the end than the beginning. When I’m fat here’s nothing worse than running a quarter mile and having everything hurt and being exhausted.
Lifting weights is ok, but nothing I look forward to.
