Yes, you CAN learn to love cardio! I used to HATE it. HATE. As in, it was torture. Once, someone dragged me to the gym and I cried, true story.
Fast forward a year, doing my cardio 6 times a week, and you know what? I look FORWARD to it and throw in "bonus" workouts, which are basically extra cardio workouts I do beyond what I've planned. Cardio time is one of my favorite times of day - I have learned to embrace my sweatiness (and boy, do I sweat...more than most, I think), learned to love the slight muscle burning, all of it. I also love the effects - the extra energy, the lowered stress and anxiety levels, the improved physical fitness and improved mental health, and the extra weight loss. So YES, you can learn to love it!
