Does excerise actually make you feel better?

[Scythe]

Been excerising recently, like 15 minutes at a time else it makes me extremely unhappy. I'm not doing it to improve my mood, I just want to stay in shape, but like the normies are saying it's supoosed to make you feel better. Why is it I feel like shit when I'm excerising and then I go back to feeling however I was feeling before I excerised.

Anyone else just doesn't get any positive feedback from your body after excerising? Am I supposed to do it for longer? But then again I have sports sessions that's 1 hour and I feel better if I did good, and worse if I didn't perform well. There is the occasional day where I'm a bit happier afterwards, but those are rare.

It depends to be honest. Sometimes I feel amazing after a session, others I can't even finish it because my motivation simply isn't there. It's dependent on how your brain processes motivation and rewards, which is something you have to train if your brain even allows for it to be trained. Consistency is the biggest boon, so don't push yourself so hard that your break your rhythm.

It never did anything for me. I try walking but I just get bored. Don't have access to anything else.

I'm planning to start going to the gym to lose weight before ctb, but I'm not looking forward to it at all. For me it's only pain and no gain. I don't mind walking though.

Sometimes I feel great after, sometimes I can barely finish. I try to exercise 5x a week for an hour each time. Just tired of looking in the mirror and seeing a fat person lol so I push myself to do it. Honestly the only days where I look forward to doing it are the days where I have a lot on my mind. Exercise helps me forget about that stuff for a little bit. Other than that, I think people who love exercising are nuts lol

Generally I feel more satisfied with myself but you have to get into it, if it's a boring chore for you it may not work and you need to find the kind of routine that works for you.
Headphones and music throughout really helps me focus and unwind.
I think 15 minutes is to little, but it depends. What kind of excercise do you do?
I used to do martial arts when I was little it really shaped me a lot and was stupidly fun to do, I also really enjoyed that my sensei never glossed on the formalities of being serious and rigid during training, it really made me who I am now.
