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 do classes, 1hr of body combat to go hard and then it’s done. The music, instructors and feeding off the energy of the ppl around you make it enjoyable.

      Classes are the best. Loud music, workout to the beat with other people there. I tried lifting, but was so bored between sets that i just went home halfway through a workout. Than i started Body pump, and there is no time to get bored.
