burpees (for kicking my *kitten*)
deadlifts (for lifting heavy things and making my legs shaky)
bench press (for making myself feel better after burpees kick my *kitten*)
high pulls (bc of the vanity element-- I can do a ton of weight and it looks bad-*kitten*)
lat pull downs (bc I want to be batman)0 -
Iso: Curls in the squat rack (JK)
Compound: Deadlifts
HIIT: $ex
Steady-state cardio: biking0 -
Dead lifts ! I want to use the squat rack though I'm still shy and it's always being used lol0
-
Deadlifts for legs, and seated cable row for back. Actually I love training back all together, and shoulders and arms. I hate training legs, but those are my weakest so I train 2x a week.0

newfound love of Deadlifts and Leg presses. Benching more then your boyfriend is always a nice feeling too ^_^ :blushing: :drinker:0
-
Squats. Greatest test of strength.0
-
compound lifts...
but I do freaking love doing weighted chins and pulls...
squats too....
and HIIT0 -
Bench press. I just love the feeling of it0
-
Preacher curls and press behind neck0
-
The bench. I've seen far more progress on squats and deadlifts, but there's something incredibly satisfying about a new bench PR. Also, afterwards I get the same wonderful feeling I get from a capsaicin overdose, so there's that too.0

SNATCH!! as all time favourite - lifting heavy **** from floor to above your head.. how can you not love that!! especially from hanging position.. priceless!!
Kb swing as a very close second!!
burpees (as i just have the proper form down n feel like im flying when im doing them.. instead of dieing like normal)
and also rather love hand stand pressups and ring dips!!0 -
Bench0
-
If only one, it would be Deadlifts. Squats are a close second, and I like split squats as well.0
-
Leg press! Probably because I can do reasonably well on it, and the feeling the next day is incredible, sore, but incredible!0

Just getting into lifting, but
Deadlifts are my favourite, maybe because I made such progress, and can lift more than my bodyweight.
Steady state cardio - swimming.
HIIT - probably the treadmill0 -
Hang, clean & press - because it makes the gym chatterboxes keep their distance.0
-
Compound: OHP
Iso: Skullcrushers (about as close to an isolation movement as I get)
HIIT: Bag work
Steady state: Walking/NEAT (I don't really do any dedicated ss cardio)0
