    I like most outdoor exercise. Biking of any sort, rollerblading, hiking, volleyball, skiing -- I get downright grumpy if I don't get my outdoors fix.

    Indoors, not so much. I only workout indoors when I have no other choice.

    The exercise I do (PS3 My Fitness Coach) I wouldn't say I really like, I like the feeling after, I just feel much healthier. But actual sports or games I would do for ages without noticing a sweat would be a using dance machine, swimming and (though it's very light activity in my past experience) Badminton. Unfortunately I don't have all the change to throw into dance machines, wouldn't go near a swimming centre cause I'm insecure and my friend who did Badminton with me moved to another place for Uni

    I love running and even if I ever reach my goal weight, I will still continue to do running.

    I do love it. I love getting outside. I love the endorphines afterwards and I love being able to take in more calories.

    I hate most cardio, except walking, although Zumba can be fun. I like yoga. I have been doing bodyweight exercises lately and like doing that (because I can do it while I watch tv) and I LOVE the results I'm getting from it. So far it's the only exercise I've ever done where I can actually see and feel the difference in my body. That makes it more fun, I guess!

    I ****ing love it. I love lifting weights and I love doing my cardio (crossfit). With the weight lifting I love trying to make progress, one more rep or a few more kg added to the bar. I go to bed early excited to be up at 530 ready to hit the gym. I also love the results, I feel so much stronger and I look better too plus I can sprint and not fall over dead at the end. I am Zombie Apocalypse ready!

    I know that it is necessary, but do you really like it? I have found two activities that I tolerate (walking and kickboxing) but have yet to find an exercise I like...

    The only "exercise" I do it weightlifting. I like it because I visualise the results I'm aiming for which drives me to push myself. As for cardio, I mainly do tennis, martial arts, dodgeball and climbing - love doing those things so could do them all day (well until I collapse :bigsmile: ).

    Yes, I do.

    At the gym, I like rowing, the arm bike, the elliptical, and the battle ropes.

    In classes, I like kickboxing, step aerobics, floor aerobics, and aqua zumba.

    I really, seriously do not like exercise but love how I feel after I am done. The "I did it!" feeling like I've won a presidency or something. Perhaps that feeling will wear off but for now, I am using the "I did it!" feeling to motivate me to get back in the saddle again.

    Checking the goals off my list!

    I absolutely love step aerobics and cardio kickboxing. I HATE running/jogging and try to avoid it as much as possible. I also hate weight training but have found two classes at the gym that incorporate it, so I am getting it in that way.

    I love lifting. It is the exercise that's stolen my heart. It clears my head on the crazy days and shows me my own strength when I'm struggling. It is my sanity and my stress relief. It wrecks me, but it is my refuge.

    The only trick is finding the kind of exercise that you feel that way about. It's waiting for you.

    OMG yes!! I'm kinda hyper so it helps me burn off all this excess energy. I love to run and lift weights. Running especially because I get to go outside:wink:

    I did not like it at first. But now I love it and I feel bad the days I don't do it. I do mostly Jillian Michaels' DVD's but I also love yoga. I hate running. The only way I'm running is if I'm being chased by a clown zombie holding a snake.

    I love it. I've developed an intense relationship with my treadmill and my bike. I feel weird if I don't spend time with them every day.

    And they must love me back, because I look fabulous!
