“…Numerous studies have investigated the positive effects of acute and long‐term exercise on affect, cognition, and fitness (Arbinaga et al, 2018; Lindheimer et al, 2017; Martland et al, 2020). The specific direction and magnitude of these responses vary from one individual to another, depending on the expectation of the exercise (Lindheimer et al, 2019; Mothes, Leukel, Jo, et al, 2017; Mothes, Leuke, Seelig, et al, 2017; Stanforth et al, 2011); in other words, the specific outcome, characterized by self‐confirmation and stability, is based on previous experience that a future event will occur (Beedie et al, 2018). There is also a link between expectations and exercise benefits.…”
