      leg press and lat pull. Everything else I like is using my own body weight including TRX, it's definitely my fave!

      Leg press by far! I love seeing 450+ pounds move under my power--something I can't do with my upper body!

      It changes day to day. Sometimes it's the treadmill, sometimes it's the bench press, sometimes I'm super lazy and it's stretching :lol:

      My favorite gym exercise is the elliptical because I don't have one at home and don't do it often so it's fun. I do all my lifting at home (for now anyway) since I have a whole set of weights.

      I'm a weak little girl and can't do a real pullup yet (at least not properly) but I love the assisted machine for it. Makes me feel tough to get through 3x10 even though I'm not strong enough to really do it.

      Mostly I just like to run, though.

      I have a home gym and only go to the regular gym once a week. I would say that the exercises I like best at the regular gym are hyperextensions and chin ups/chin up negatives. I do back raises off a bench at home but being able to use the actual hyperextension thing (not sure if it's considered a machine since there are no moving parts) is nice. My chin up bar at home is a pipe threaded through two ratchet straps hanging from the ceiling in the basement. The pipe tends to roll a bit when I hang from it so having a bar that doesn't roll makes doing chin ups/negatives nicer at the gym.

      Cleans, front squats, deadlifts and box jumps. And maybe because I've put on weight, I can't do as many pullups as I used to. I pr'd at 6 but now I'm down to 3 strict pullups from dead hang. And I haven't done chinups in a while but they are my love.
