    Heavy squats and deadlifts. But that might just be me.

    division curls :D my arms burn like hell after cuz Ive pretty much just done 3 sets of 30 haha but for me the burn is addicting. Same for any workout that leaves my legs feeling like rubber.

    But there was one when I did a sports acceleration program a couple years ago. about 5 of us, we all had flags on and a square of about 8yards x 8 yards and the goal was to get the flag with out sitting on it or leaving the area. Really fun especially since I won most of the time even though I was the biggest :D downside I dislocated my ankle doing it haha still was fun though

    oh forgot pilates and yoga. great for the core!

    Incline dumbbell press is one of my favorite exercises. I like leg extensions, toe presses ( calves) on the leg press machine.. Scull crushers(lying tricep extensions) . I also enjoy under hand lat pulldowns. These exercises are all a joy for me to do...

    I like to play sports as a form of exercise. Playing soccer or shooting basketball hoops can burn a lot of calories, especially if you're chasing the ball/etc and not just standing around. Raquetball is also a lot of fun!

    I do agree though, some of the previous strength moves are a ton of fun. Deadlifts and squats tend to be a couple of my favorite haha.
