I get that feeling whenever I hit a milestone in something: if I run a couple miles further than I had previously, if I understand something that was opaque before, if I am able to do something that I couldn't before, I get this "woo hoo!" feeling that I associate with levelling up.
Same here. This feeling is especially prevalent for me in weightlifting--my strength/dexterity/stamina attribute is increasing! Too many RPGs played as a kid.
I've found gymnastics skills are a great complement to lifting in this regard. When lifting is getting mundane and/or stalling you still have physical skills you can level up.
What kinds of gymnastics skills?
Just bodyweight exercises like muscle-ups?
muscle ups, planche, l-sit, back and front levers, elevators (eventually), freestanding hand stand pushups, and that's all the "easy" stuff as far as real gymnasts are concerned.
