    The side lunge shoulder raise from the Jillian Michael's 30 DS... and in general I also dislike crunches, especially bicycle crunches.

    I struggle with planks, building my strength so it'll only get better. Least that's what I keep telling myself:laugh:

    Here's another Burpee video this guy is hilarious and shows WHY we should love them!
    Plus he's pretty HOT, which doesn't hurt!!:love:

    Anything that has to do with working the muscles in my back, my thighs and glutes. I also hate weight exercises that force me to push the weight away from me since I have a bad elbow, and exercises that strain my knees because I have a bad knee. In general I have a joint disorder and it means I'm in more than just "wow that was a great burn" pain.

    But I have to say I love how it's all making my shoulders and back look and my thighs no longer "dome" over from fat so when I'm sitting I can place my phone or a book or something else fairly small on my lap and know it won't tumble off.

    Yes! <3! Thanks for sharing. :-D

    Being new on here, I had to look up what a "burpee" was. It is four parts of an eight count body builder! When I was in bootcamp, (Navy), they made us do eight count body builders. It is the burpee, but you do a push up, and a jumping jack at the end so it becomes eight counts! Does that make sense? And oh....how they hurt!

    Burpees are great for abs and glutes. Standing up, you come to your feet and kick them behind you, so you are in push-up/plank position, and kick then bring both your feet back to your hands and stand up. (kind of hard to explain but a great move) I know football players do this in their practices

    Squats. I do them every training session now too, so I'm slowly learning to tolerate them, but I still hate them so much. So much that I will dominate them!

    Hate
    - Push ups, can't wait til they get easier.
    - Any core/ab exercises, omg I hate it sooo much, and I don't care about ever having visible abs. Planks are the worst ever. But I need to do the core stuff to help with my back issues, so I keep at it.
    - Lunges. hate hate hate them.

    Love:
    - Any pull exercises (lat pulldown, seated row)
    - Squats and Deadlifts. Love love love em.
