It sounds like you might just be too fit for that to work. I used to do 14 hours of (recreational) dance a week and I would only really get a runners high when I went to a weekend long dance event and was doing cardio for at least 6+ hours.
Or itβs not universal, who knows.
Not OP, but that's a nope from me. I've been trying to break into up jogging, so I'm nowhere near "too fit". Not getting that runner's high during or after any of these sessions. I mostly just feel like I'm dying both during and afterward. Any small positive effect I get from it is being able to check off the boxes in the app I'm using lol.
Hehe, what gives me a "high" after a workout is looking at the recording of my heart rate and seeing the peaks and valleys. I do HIIT so there's a lot of them.
