That one body part...

in Chit-Chat
We so often discuss the hatred over one part of our bodies or another...we discuss the inefficacy of spot training...we talk about various exercises and training...
But, we hardly ever talk about the part(s) of our bodies we actually like, maybe even love...even if still in progress...
I will kick it off...I love my shoulders/upper arms. I recognize the work that has gone into those muscles...all the laps swam, all the bicep curls and pull-ups.
Now its your turn to be kind to yourself and praise your efforts!

    I love my eyes, although I can’t claim any effort for them being like that :)

    I have a good solid back on me. My wings are wide and things ripple and bulge while i'm working out. Pity I can't see it though because it's behind me!

    I'm going to be totally honest and admit that currently, I don't have a single one.

    My boobs are ok I guess, but I didn't have any part in those besides suffering through puberty.

    My arms. To some they look a bit small especially for someone who lifts and does bulk cycles but for me I like how they look in proportion to my larger lower body.

    One part...I like my neck.
    I feel lucky to too, because there's not much you can do about it if you don't like it.

    What is the purpose of cut/bulk cycles?, rather than cutting down to an aesthetically pleasing level and hitting maintenance level with calories. Also how long should each cycle last?

    Not to completely rerail but it's basically running cycles to put on muscle overall... so the gaining weight (fat+ muscle) then the cutting to get rid of the fat but keep the muscle. Over time you build your physique and end up at a higher weight than you started (if all goes well!). How long they last is really personal. Typically the cut is about half of the bulk, but it varies. For me I like to run bulks that are 5-8 months long. Some people go longer.

    Back...most detailed/beautiful, overlooked/undertrained/neglected by most people, defines posture & CNS

    Yeah, also, soooo many different exercises & variations for hitting back & @ various angles. I can honesty say I've never gotten bored or felt things are getting stale/repetitive with back training even after 20 years of lifting experience

    My fave body part to train is back. And it shows LOL!

    If I spent half as much time that I do on my back on my legs/butt, I'd actually have a butt and more sculpted legs by now.

    Yeah, every Monday I start the week off with back whilst the rest of the world (guys anyways) choose chest + bis or legs/"bootay" (gals anyways). Routinely always hitting up back first for ages. Can't ever get enough or bored with training back vs. other bodyparts; back is most complex in my opinion
