It feels good to expend energy

Like hell it does. Conserving energy feels good. That's why you don't see animals expending energy all the time; just humans busting their asses off working.

Accomplishing something you set out to do is what feels good. The physical pain of exhaustion most certainly does not when even in the example set, we use tools to expend less energy.

Go to a dog park and tell me those fuckers aren't enjoying themselves running around.

Most animals play around, you just don't see it in a city much.
