- rimliu 10y agoI don't agree with "If done at a proper relative intensity, everyone finds exercise extremely unpleasant in the moment.". It may be physically uncomfortable but you can get pleasure from taking control over yourself. It's hard for me to explain, but some unpleasant thing can bring pleasure. Alos, if it is extremely unpleasant I'd doubt it is done at the proper level.
- magic_beans 10y agoI totally agree :) I exercise nearly every damn day, and I find it UNPLEASANT. Of course it's unpleasant! My brain screams at me to just sit down and sleep. But exercise, if anything, is a mental challenge. The brain screams at you to stop, but your body, deep down, wants and needs to move. So I make myself do it, and OP makes themselves do it. I'm shocked that OOP doesn't seem to get any exercise-euphoria. That high is absolutely worth it.
