Consider The Joy of Movement by Kelly McGonigal. Recommended by 2 sources.
“Kelly McGonigal offers an accessible, upbeat account of how movement can be pleasurable, social, and mood-lifting, mixing readable summaries of scientific studies with personal stories and practical reframes. The book's main utility is motivation and language you can use to make activity feel less like duty and more like play or connection. Its main limitation is repetition and a reliance on anecdotes—readers seeking detailed plans, strict data analysis, or novel protocols will find it light and sometimes too reassuring.”
