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 enjoy it more from the sense of breaking and detaching from my working day. I don’t really do anything too intense (if I had that approach it would kill the fun for me I reckon) and have a few set exercises I do but it feels good to get a bit of fitness in during the day.
