That's what exercising is all about. You go into with notions of getting fit; that is the goal and that should be the goal.
What's taken for granted though is the in-the-moment feeling that comes about during exercise. Next time you're exercising, take a mental check when your heart rate is around 125 to 140. Hover there for a while and think about how it feels. Sure it might be a little uncomfortable physically. But how do you feel mentally?
Is there a clarity of thought?
Do things seem more crisp to you? I bet they do.
Now do this: get more fit. Just a little bit more - like 3-4 weeks worth. Do another mental check.
That's what it's about. The aesthetics matter, but you'll see that they become secondary.
What we all really want is to feel good, from the inside out.
