Same here. This feeling is especially prevalent for me in weightlifting—my strength/dexterity/stamina attribute is increasing! Too many RPGs played as a kid.
I’ve found gymnastics skills are a great complement to lifting in this regard. When lifting is getting mundane and/or stalling you still have physical skills you can level up.
muscle ups, planche, l-sit, back and front levers, elevators (eventually), freestanding hand stand pushups, and that’s all the “easy” stuff as far as real gymnasts are concerned.

What kinds of gymnastics skills?
Just bodyweight exercises like muscle-ups?
