I exercise on a strict schedule, both weight lifting and cardio. It is never enjoyable for me. I don’t get runners high, or pleasure from the exertion. I just make myself tired, sweaty, and add on temporary pain to my muscles.
It’s worth it for the global effect on my energy levels and health. But it remains true that for some of us, exercise is never a source of enjoyment, and I understand why many people can’t get through that to do it anyway.
- travisporter 4y agoI’m in the same boat. Sports is a great shortcut but it’s just a lot of mental effort to meet new people.

People tell me that you feel good after and I never do. People tell me that you feel a "good" soreness in your body and I never do. I just feel sore. I wonder what's different about people like you and me where we don't enjoy this process the way some other people do? Do you think it's been studied?
