for me, yes, when cycling. its a form of meditation to me and you can always back off if it gets too hard or exhausting. im working on my climbing now which is definitly challenging me but its also good for building that mental fortitude of 'head down, just peddle dont think'. its done wonders for me mentally, as well as physically
Same with jogging for me. I get amped up listening to electronic music and am full zen mode when I'm finished. Plus the endorphins improve my mood
