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 also play Beat Saber several times a week! It's loads of fun. I find the multiplayer gets me competitive and I'll end up playing for up to 2 hours (assuming I've kept my endurance up).

I've never seen that replay feature before, that's really cool. I stopped playing modded songs a while ago because the plugin kept breaking and was incompatible with multiplayer. Has that gotten any better? (I play on SteamVR w/ Valve Index)
