Oh yeah, I freaking hate jumping jacks, too. It's not even because they're hard for me... I just feel like a complete imbecile doing them. They're stupid!0 -
My self. When I was in the military we had a similar exercise we called the 8 count pushup. You start standing position count 1 squat down count 2 kick out count 3 4 5 6 = 2 pushups count 7 back the squat position count 8 stand up. That's 1 rep. Do 30 reps and your doing pretty good.0

Used to be burpees, but i have a love/hate relationship with them now. There are at least 75 ways to do burpees. This morning, I used burpees in my workout. I did 7 sets of 8 burpees. You do a regular burpee, jump up at the end and grab a pullup bar and do as many pullups as you can. I also love to do a set of burpees, sprint 50 yards and do another set. You do this until you barf0

Quoted for emphasis!
I do them frequently to try to get better at them, with the goal of liking them one day...it's not really working, though I am getting much better at them!!0 -

BURPESS!! and I'm not particularly fond of sprints, but I will take them over Burpees any day!!0

Squat thrusts. I know that if I just keep doing them every day I'll improve, but my goodness it's rubbish only being able to do half a dozen in a minute!0

F****** Mountain Climbers - I HATE this exercise, with a passion.
and reverse lunges.. It's not like forward (standard) lunges are a bundle of fun either, but reverse ones kill my balance, and my knees.. I spend more time worrying about those two to get any substantial workout in my thighs/quads!0 -
KETTLE BELLS!!!!!0

Burpees. Definitely burpees.
I second that. I never. ever. ever. do burpees. I refuse. I'll do anything else. just not those.0 -
Let' see I don't like jumping jacks since I have 42g boobs and all that bounce can't be healthy. I also don't like the pull up thing I just look at it and walk away. Maybe when I'm 45 more lbs lighter.0
