What is your Favorite / Least Favorite Exercises

What is your Favorite Exercises and which ones could you do without.

Favorite Exercise

Eat...  Nope can't do it

Cycling.  I used to be a very avid cyclist.  riding anywhere between 3-5k miles a year. I couldn't get enough of it. Then I found motorcycling and bicycling went out the window.  This is the year to get it all back though.

Close second is swimming - lifeguard during college

Least Favorite Exercise 

Jogging / Running - unless there is a game involved it is worse than torture.

2nd runner up is UBWO.  Never a strong suit for me and probably because I didn't like to do it. I am making a point to do this for BFL.



Life is too short to ride slowly.

 		Faves:

ANYthing with weights for the Lower Body. I LOVE me a tough LBWO and the DOMS that come with it.

RUNNING. Running has served many different purposes for me for the last 6 years, and my LOVE for it comes and goes. I love it for a while, then I rebel against it and do anything BUT running. Right now, this is the longest span of time that I've felt the undying love for running (good thing, cuz I'm training for some events)!

Least:

Biceps, not sure why, never liked working biceps.

Pull ups.........MAINLY because I haven't yet hit that mind-body connection of the movement and can only do them assisted right now....FOR NOW!

Keep on truckin', mama!

 		Faves: Squats, walking lunges, DB hammer press, leaning side raises.

Least: Standing calf raises. They are directly related to my tummy because it aches every time I do them.

 		Fav: pretty much any UBWO exercise, but I am digging skullcrushers right now.

Least Fav: Any type of aerobic (cardio) especially HIIT. I consistently seem to hit the snooze button whenever my planned cardio day comes up.

 		Fav: Bicep-PTMs, LBWO

Least Fav: HIIT on the bike machine. Makes me feel very uncomfortable. I actually switched to running HIIT just because the bike was bothering me.

 		Favorite: Arnold Press (Shoulders)

Worst: Lying Dumbbell Extension (Triceps)

My Triceps are pitifully weak when I isolate them. I've only gone up a few pounds on my isolated Triceps lift amounts during my lifetime.

 		I like cleans, bench, tricep stuff, pull ups.

Hate burpees, box jumps, burpees, and I'm not such a big fan of thrusters.

Suck at back squats but I don't hate them.
