Aside from labeling anyone that works out as a narcissist, the sheer 'ability' to do things is what makes it great.
I'm not even referring to just being able to lift something, because plenty of larger framed people can do that. I remember the first time I realized I was no longer "big" came when I squeezed through a thin pathway in my closet. Last week, I ended up doing 7 chained backflips at a trampoline park. What was the point of both incidents? "To see if I could".
If you do some forms of training, you can become very flexible. If you are martial art minded, you can find yourself very disciplined.
Finally, you do get more confident (what someone might see as narcissist or how someone might manifest it).
