    Hmmm..... don't hate either.

    I actually love squats, all squats. (ok, I don't LOVE overhead)

    When I have to do lunges I just think about my how much better my butt looks and they don't seem that bad at all.

    I have a love/hate relationship with lunges and squats right now. My trainers makes me do them three days a week and I dread every session with her, but I LOVE that they are shaping my butt and legs in such a short amount of time.

    I've always enjoyed them! Lunges hurt me, but I like the intensity.

    I'm ok with lunges and squats, it's push ups I can't do!! :laugh:

    I struggle with push-ups, too. I have to do the "girl" push-ups.

    I'm not a huge fan of squats, though I make myself do them. Deadlifts are my preferred lift.

    I hate lunges! Squats, on the other hand are not quite so bad.

    my knee joints are not the best, add squats and lunges to the mix and its torture. Especially lunges. I actually prefer travelling lunges to static. Static lunges feels like my knees are about to pop. I recently decided to stop doing lunges

    I like squats, and I'm okay with lunges.

    What I hate is planks when my trainer times me with his blasted stop watch.

    I love what they do for you, but just once, I'd like to feel strong or that I'm doing them very well! ugh. It's more mental than anything.

    After doing kettlebells for 11 months, I have lots of muscles and in my butt too! So I keep doing them...

    Squats - not so bad. Lunges - a killer and then we add weights on top of that, thats what really gets me sore in the butt and thigh!!
