    Lifting weights. It's the only exercise I do for any reason other than enjoyment.

    You know, I'm a pretty in-shape person and I still dread push-ups and chin-ups. They are freekin' hard! :s

    I'd rather use the weight machines where you can reduce the resistance relative to body weight, but still, I sometimes do them. And dread it. :#

    Thanks for asking! :p

    Push-ups. They always get done but usually involve some whining to my coach.

    I used to dread doing legs. Specifically squats. But now I'm really determined to gain massive legs so even though it's still the hardest muscle group for me to do, I go in with the mindset of excitement because I cant wait to reach my goal.

    Barbell Back Squats.

    Hardest for me 2 do. Got seriously injured doing them b4 and always worried about getting injured each time that I do them again.

    Squat balance clock. Basically this, but standing on a cardio step so you're only on one leg.

    On the plus side, at the beginner level, the book considers 3 reps on each leg (in each position) sufficient.

    Deadlifts and shoulder presses. I've given up both for alternatives.

    There are days I really don't feel like squatting and other days I love it. I have a love/hate relationship with it.

    I pretty much only run for exercise and I honestly never feel pumped up or excited to go run - lol

    I generally feel pretty great afterwards, especially after a long run. I never thought I could do long runs and assumed people who run for 2+ hours were crazy. Now my long runs are 10-12 miles and I feel pretty awesome :smile:

    Aside from running I hate wall balls. Every time I do them I can barely walk the next day.

    I don't do exercises I dread.

    I only do exercises I enjoy ... like, for example ... walking, cycling, climbing stairs, lifting weights, canoeing, snowshoeing, swimming, hiking, spinning classes, rowing at the gym, running on the treadmill ... :)

    If I dread anything, it's not exercising. Really missing exercise right now. :(

    lol . . . i get that, because lunges. a person can measure how much i hate lunges by the fact i'm actually willing to consider split squats as an alternative.
