    The exercise you hate

    I'm sure even the most dedicated have an exercise they just can't love or find boring.
    Which one?

    I don't hate anything. Maybe I love BB waaaay too much? I like the challenge so even my newly trained areas where I'm the weakest like abs I like. It's an undescribable feeling after you train the weak areas IMO.

    Clean and press. The transfer from lift to press feels awkward.
    So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
    of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
    about another group that actually does something
    to improve their lives.

    BB curls. Just never seemed to get those biceps to grow, wide but no peak. 19 1/2" arms and all Tricep.

    Damn I hate pull ups - In gym class as a kid I could never do even one. I incorperate them into my back day because theyr an awsome exercise but I always get this sick feeling before I do them.

    I'm of the opinion that if you love doing an exercise you're not doing it right...

    I hate everything I do.

    That's quite a hilarious philosophy!

    I can't stand squats. I dread them and find myself putting them off. When it comes time to squat I stall out. My lower body is just embarrassing compared to my upper body. It's sad when you can bench more than you can squat.

    I know what you mean
    However I just love the pain and knowing that Iam going to get some serious Hypertrophy resulting in me pushing myself harder and further than I did on my previous workout. Thats why I'am such a big user of trisets and the superset as well as Fiascia Stretching. Nothing better than getting your eyes to water then phisically colapsing and not having the energy to get up when you've still got a lot of work to do during your workout. Also theres nothing better than DOMS the next again morning which is another reason to push yourself 110 per cent everytime you enter the gym.

    Overhead Dumbell Presses:When you do these without a partner/spotter and are at the edge of your maxium it can be a major pain in the drain to get the damn things up on your shoulders and balanced in a starting position as well as get them back down again without dropping them hard to the floor. Managed to ring my own bell a number of times too with the damn things and intimately know why they call them "dumbells".

    Also 2nd worse exercise: tie between good mornings and skull crackers/crushers:
    The good mornings with even moderate weight can just plain feel weird and stressful in the back and the skull crackers give me a lot of concern that I am going to kill myself if I get sloppy or a weight slips off and tosses the whole thing out of balance.

    Yeah I know what you mean by the Good Mornings I never do them myself.I prefer to substutuite them with SLDL and Deadlifts which in my opinion are far superior exersises.The skull crushers are an exersises where you have to be careful for obvious reasons (lol )

    SQUATS. The exercise itself is not that bad, but it's the light headed puke affect I experience every so often when doing them that sucks. BLAH!!
