zenmaenad Posts: 1 Joined: 2006/05/21	2006/05/25, 12:32 AM I hate incline presses. Hate em, hate em, hate em. I hate incline presses because they use my weakest body parts, and that's why I do em so often. Someday I'll be good at em. P.S. Hi, Lydia here. New member. I'm on the muscle mass program, which kicks my ass, and I love it!

sstump1 Posts: 1,227 Joined: 2005/03/20	2006/05/26, 02:06 PM Deadlifts for me! I love Squats though and even lunges, but when I put Deadlifts in my workout I have to do them very near the end of my workout cause I'm pretty much done after that.

gogo13 Posts: 1 Joined: 2006/06/14	2006/06/14, 01:45 PM i think push ups and running i have a horrible knee but i run 10 miles a day
wrestler125 Posts: 4,619 Joined: 2004/01/27	2006/06/14, 09:54 PM Yea, so lunges today. They suck. Like, screw that. I'm sticking with step ups for unilateral leg work. Its more quantified, and I can use more weight. -------------- Iron and chalk. Pain is only temporary, it is in your mind. If you can still walk, then you can still run.

narminb Posts: 3 Joined: 2008/06/28	2008/06/29, 07:09 AM Did you substitute chin ups with a different exercise? My problem is I don't think I'll be able to do chin ups. Thank you in advance for our input. ============ Quoting from tenorsaxmandave: Chin-ups. Bench Press is a close 2nd. In my opinion, they are the "lima beans" and "cottage cheese" of the exercise world. Eechh. TSMD =============

This should help you build some strength to be able to do them eventually. But, you should still try to do as many chins as possible. -------------- I see the words you are typing, but all I read is *click*click*click* Fat loss isn?t under the control of the magic fat loss fairies. - Alwyn Cosgrove
narminb Posts: 3 Joined: 2008/06/28	2008/06/29, 12:12 PM Thank you; although I was going to try and avoid chin-ups, I will give it a go and perhaps top-up with lateral pulldowns until I am able to complete the recomended reps. ============ Quoting from TimDay: You can try lat pulldowns or use an assited chin machine if one is available.

docksideguy05 Posts: 90 Joined: 2008/05/15	2008/07/02, 10:22 PM I know I'm weird but I hate calf raises, they're one of the most useless excercises in my opinion. I like compound movements like squats and deadlifts cuz they hurt so good :big_smile:

DcMoody23 Posts: 79 Joined: 2008/11/02	2008/11/02, 09:40 PM Nobody says leg extensions? That comes to me as a surprise... That's an essential workout but if improperly done can cause much pain in the knees.. I hate doing them out of fear I will damage me knees. I don't understand everyone's problem with the lunges though... They're so easy... It makes me think I do them wrong to see all of you complain :laugh:
