    Olympic Lifting

    Oh hell yeah! I knew I liked you!

    lol @Gimsteinn ... now can we talk about our snatches???

    Ahh *kitten* snatches.. My most hated lift. I keep falling on my *kitten* lol
    You're good at it?

    some days yes, some days no... but like most guys, i will overestimate my ability at the snatch, only to under perform and leaving you wonder if i had ever done one before

    That sounds like my snatches lol. You're not an Olympic lifter are your? You look more like a crossfitter.

    Hiking is by far my favorite. But I also enjoy shooting hoops quite a bit. Most of my 'exercise' is really more activity than formal exercise.

    Everything that makes me wanna scream and leaves me feeling like I'm about to die but I love intense workouts. The more intense, the more I love them.
    Currently, handstand push ups, burpees and pull ups (strict, butterfly and kipping) are my favourite but my least favourite would be the bloody bike!

    Rock climbing is great for that. Outdoors, I mean, not in a gym. That moment when your body weight is hanging off a couple of fingers and you look 80 feet down to the ground below you is more intense than any lift I've ever done. :smile:

    Exercising horses! Not that I get to do it these days (moved countries twice now - yay military life) but I used to do it daily and I was SO fit and healthy and happy. Nothing like a gallop down a beach on a cold, early morning!
    But other than that, I like hiking/walking with my dogs, and running. And yoga - but I tend to "forget" to do it.
    Hoping that when we move (again) we will be somewhere that gets snow - that's the best exercise: walking/hiking in snow. I might even learn to ski!

    Oh no.. I can't do rock climbing I have a huge fear of falling. As in so much so that I can't even let go of the bar wile doing pull ups..
    Tried rock climbing once.. Never again.

    That's what the rope is for. :smile: And it doesn't get much more intense than facing down your fears, right?

    Being a power lifter I love benching, and squats. For fat burning/cardio, I love difficult hiking trails, swimming, and the elliptical machine.
