You know the one. The exercise you always kick ass at doing. The one that you feel comfortable with challenging yourself to lift heavier or to do more reps. The one that when you meet the challenge, makes you feel like AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH, FUCK YEAH!!

I always look forward to incline chest presses.

Squats come in a close 2nd.

I like chest workouts mostly with dumb bells,incline & decline presses and flys.I like the tight feeling after I'm finished

lunges and leg press because i can do a lot of weight and i know that they are helping to maintain my bubble of an ass.

Decline chest presses! Did it today!!

I love leg days because they're helping me look like I didn't just get out of a full lower-body cast.

Dumbbell lunges, step-ups, leg presses, knee extensions, scissor switches, all that fun stuff...

GobB saidlunges and leg press because i can do a lot of weight and i know that they are helping to maintain my bubble of an ass.

LEG PRESSES!!! Same reason - I can do 1300lbs. It's not that uncommon, but compared to like 50lbs for the upper body exercises I attempt, I feel super human!

I like heavy squats and legs presses. We don't have a hack squat machine at my gym for some reason. I did some hack squats at a gym in Columbus tonite and had legs of rubber for awhile aftewards. Haven't felt that for awhile. Loved it!

Bench would be my favorite if I have to name just one. Squats is up there, curls too -

To be honest, I don't think I have a favorite...maybe cardio cuz I can read a magazine while doing it.

Squats. They make me feel grounded and legs are the largest muscle group I think.

I LOOOVE bench presses and I'm sure i'm going to love leg presses too.

Squats, gotta be squats.

Bicep curls... love the "burning" sensation on my arms

I have a love/hate relationship with the bench press. I love putting up the weight or exceeding a previous weight. However I hate the way it aggrevates my shoulder when I run after a workout. Its one of the most painful feelings in the world.

That is easy, running on the treadmill. It really releases the endorphins and lets me escape mentally to a different place. I could do without weights.

Bench press for me, although I prefer doing it on the horizontal bench press machine.

Any sort of tricep work is a close second.

BM squats. I always do them just after ab crunches.

Bicep curls and crunches. I love the aching feeling!

Squats used to be, but I have a ruptured disc in my back so I can't do 'em any more. These days my fav exercise is chest work with dumbbells, although I still have a small chest.
And, did looknmd say he can leg press 1300 pounds? I think my knees would come apart with that much weight.

I love heavy leg presses and squats.

Hard as hell!

Make you sick to your stomach!

Make you feel like you can't breathe!

Awesome!

Leg Press 630 to 990 lbs / 4 sets of 12

Freeweight Squat 225 to 365 / 4 sets of 12

* No "pussy squats" either... squat till just below parallel

Legs here too but a Year ago today took both Knuckles that is the top of my tibia off in an accident. Top of tibia is bottom of knee called the platella Plateau, Four screws in there, Fear I wlll hurt it, better get over it going Skydiving on the 17th.

Squats back up to 270, have to stop the POLIO legs here

S Q U A T S!!!!!!!!

I teach a full body workout class and my "favorite" exercise uses a stability ball held between the feet--think leg lifts. We hold until it burns then rotate the ball with our feet for about 10 reps. After those, my abs are on fire and I love it.

The responses so far are really interesting.. most people I know HATE doing lower body.

1. Decline bench presses

2. Weighted dips

3. Pull/chin ups

Bicep curls (machine, dumbbell or barbell)

Pull-ups

I pretty much like it all. I guess I'd have to say that I'm not too keen on wide grip pull ups as I can't do many reps with my own bodyweight.

I definitely agree on the incline chest press--my favorite chest exercise. doing abs is a close second

Oh I almost forgot!


I really LOVE doing KEGELS at the gym.

1. Bench Press for the impeccables
2. Ab Crunches (luv 'em)
3. Bicep Curl Bar (to tune the guns)
4. Side Bridge (my Transverse abdominus & Internal Olbliques hate me for doing this to them).
5. Wide Grip Pull Ups for that sexy V-notch called the traps.

I never did deadlifts until about 4 months ago. Now I love them - probably because I can go heavier than with any other exercise.

A chest super set:

7 Normal Benchpress
7 Pop up Pushups
7 Close, reverse grip benchpress

A Back superset
Dead Lift to Bent Over rows

My Bicep/Tricep Superset

10 Incline Curls to 10 Wall Curls

12 skull crushers / 8 single arm kick backs

For Legs - Heavy Squats and Calf Raises do the trick...oh and ab stuff...

I guess I like working everything!

I can't , the paper gets too wet

bicep curls

only because when i do them my muscles pop out in like 2mins and the boys stare! hehe

Curls, because it feels so good to do them and you get a great instant pump, and all kinds of crunches.
