Is it normal to enjoy being sore?

Now before anyone concludes that I enjoy pain or anything, it's a totally different concept. I play volleyball and basketball and I actually enjoy the soreness I have after an unusually tough practice or workout.
I think it's being able to feel the movement of my muscles or maybe knowing I'm getting stronger. Regardless of the reason, I enjoy being sore. IIN?

    I'm lazy right now and need to workout more but I still I like the sore muscles from exercise because it makes me feel more alive and aware of the muscles on my body.

    I'm glad you agree! My bf thinks I'm a freak for enjoying being sore, but I think it's totally normal.

    Absolutely! It makes me feel good too. Especially after a workout because you feel like you've accomplished something. Its good for you!
