Exercises you HATE

Hello! I wanted to start this thread as a place to leave our negative emotions regarding whichever exercises we HATE. I know this community is really supportive and positive, which I LOVE, but sometimes we all need to vent.

Anywho, I hate RUNNING and PUSH UPS! (Or pull ups, my upper body is so weak. Been working on it but now my arms are weak AND sore!) And I hate running because it is so boring! And it hurts my lungs like crazy. My respiratory system is always done with running before the rest of my body even wants to stop.

    I hate lifting weights.

    I have a love/hate relationship with running. I hate running but love the feeling when the run is over.

    Running is the only exercise I love. I can cope with most others cardio exercises but I hate weights. I'm doing very little weight stuff until I'm within 10lbs of my goal.
