I use leggings every day socially and for sport, but yesterday I used my regular sweatpants. They felt heavier, colder and I moved slower, which is something I never expected.
Am I alone in this?

Lycra is an absolute level-upper from sweat-clothing IMO. Unless maybe you’re pursuing the ‘sauna’ effect?
They breath very well, and I wear them as much as possible. They even layer very efficiently with other clothing, and are perfect for something like sailing, where the weather-effect can shift from balmy to hostile in a mere couple minutes.
Tonight I trekked out in freezing weather to hit the grocery store for some ingredients. I was wearing light Lycra / Spandex, with light trousers and a Baja jacket on top. That’s all the insulation I needed, even though each individual layer was pretty dang thin. If that was a sweatsuit, I’d indeed have been sweating a lot just from a couple blocks walk, but no…
