Most loathed exercise move in L1?

Options
Mine are static lunges with bicep curls - very closely followed by push-ups. Everything else is okay but the lunges make me roar in pain!!!

What is your most hated move in level 1?

    Push ups. I can't seem to do even the beginner version. Today was day one for me.

    would have to be the side lunges, only because I have issues with my knees and it hurts . . . a lot

    I detest the side lunges with the curl! By the time I get to that part I am giving Jillian a few choice words!

    I can't stand the lunges with the bicep curls. I lose my balance every time.

    The push-ups...I do the beginner version and I still burn out fast. Next are the the arm raises...I am ready to drop the weights by the second cycle.

    My most loathed exercise in Level 1 is the jump rope! Seriously, these breasts weren't made for that kind of bouncing! lol I can do the jumping jacks but the jump rope motion is so hard for me. I feel my back start to ache early into it and my legs are screaming "No!" I'm trying though (I always keep moving regardless) and getting in more each time but I don't think I'll ever enjoy them.

    I hate the first cardio set as I'm totally out of breath as I'm unfit! I also don't like the anterior raises with the side lunge in set 3. Yuck!

    Ahhhh!!! So that's what Jillian's saying!!! I have difficulty understanding some American accents/dialects and although I can follow her for most of it, I had NO clue what she was saying there at the end! LOL!

    the squat with the press ups with the barbells....uggh and the anterior raises with the side lunge, butt kicks... actually I think I just hate all of it...LOL.. I am SO out of shape... BUT I am doing it all to the best of my ability and I am not giving up. I just completed L1D3 today and each day I add 30-40 mins of elliptical afterwards. BUT the shred kicks my *kitten* within the warm up, I already start to sweat and want to die. Today, I actually cried while I was doing it.... keep telling myself 27 more days! I hope it gets easier!

    oh those side lunges with the arm curl... i find myself telling Jillian she's killing me every single time i do them! The push-ups come in a close second though. I wasn't able to even do any of the basic at the begining, yesterday I cranked out 10 beginer ones though. It was a proud moment.
