    Does bouncing in the ocean mixed with intermittent swimming count? Cuz that's my favorite. Hiking second. Deadlifts third.

    I say that anything you consider a workout and you really enjoy it, then yes. You could even lift 5lb weights as your favorite exercises. It's really what you enjoy the most that is still considered exercise and a challenge for you personally.

    Oh man, I've had that experience before where it hurt so good doing ab workouts. It was like a cooling effect on my abdominal area as it was happening. It didn't burn, or feel like it was aching, no I mean it felt like I had thrown on some of those cooling gel packs on my stomach. A bit sore, but so good.

    Indoor bike definitely, mostly because it is very much fun, it's great cardio and I have one at home so I can watch movies or tv series while I ride and that makes time pass faster :)

    I can't pick one! Cycling is seasonal, running, squats, push-ups, dead lifts, HIIT class, yoga!

    i really like overhead press. just like doing it, even when i'm not doing it with a whole heap of weight. but i pay for liking the press in being incapable of squatting with anything approaching comfort. if i had my druthers about which one came 'naturally' i probably would choose to give up the press and be a squatter instead.

    deadlifts would be my second pick, and i'd choose them over the press if it was 'you can only do one lift ever, for the rest of your life.'

    on the cardio side, i'm really attached to my bikes. i actually see the appeal of running, but i've never been able to do it for long without hurting myself.

    Swimming. Don't feel myself sweating. No impact on my arthritic feet.
