What is your most and least favorite muscle group to work?

I hate chest & biceps. I love working back, shoulders & tris. Although after doing P90X, I've started to like some pushups.

I hate leg exercises, I am just dreading those squats and lunges!! But I LOVE the end result, so I just suffer through it :+

Oh and I almost forgot, I HATE abs!!!!!! Anything abs, planks, crunches, you name it, I hate it!!! Even worse than squats! Which reminds me, I haven't yet done my abs workout for today, yuck!!!!!

My favorite is ....... I don't know, lifting my arm to turn off the DVD player after the workout, so that would be shoulders }( :+

I like doing back and shoulders. Most upper body work I don't mind. What I don't like is dips, and some pushups. x(

I also dislike leg presses x( and most lunges and squats sometimes I think they go on forever.

Also I hate ab work and if I don't have enough time I skip it. I'm such a slacker.:-(

I do like fire walkers for some odd reason and the standing leg work in legs and glutes. ;-)

I'm more of a cardio gal. I love step and kickbox.

Least... would the entire lower body count as a muscle group? I DREAD lower body days! I do admit that I feel most accomplished after a good ( painful, horrifying)lower body workout though!

Most has to be shoulders. I love working them and seeing the results.

I agree with Carola about turning off the DVD player, that's right up there with my favorites, although I think what's even better is working the glutes on the way up the stairs from the basement after I'm done with the workout!

I'm with Carola on the legs. I hate working legs, but love the results.

I love working shoulders.

I love working my chest and back. Legs and abs are my least favorite. Actually, I guess I don't LOVE to work out much at all, but if I have to, I prefer working the chest:p
 
My least favorite would be PUSH UPS (or chest) and then one legged squats (what part DOES that work?)
Am I the only one that doesn't mind ab work. I guess because it doesn't seem too tough like the others I named!x(

Hi Deana,

Most Favorite Upper Body - Triceps

Least Favorite Upper Body - Push up

I don't mind any Lower Body exercises except the ones where Cathe puts on foot on a modified riser to do lunges.

I never feel quite in control of those moves.

I could do Firewalkers forever, if nothing else, for the laughs.

I have this vision of a group of macho men who call Cathe's workouts "girly" - buck naked trying to make their way through Firewalkers using the pink bands.

Wow, I must be strange b/c I love working legs and I would say least favorite is triceps or back
 
RE: What is your most and least favorite muscle group t...

My favorite is legs i love the burn}( or chest
my least favorite is....biceps but i dont hate it
 
least favorite is the tummy seems like the tummy is the hardest to tone up my arms and leg tone up quick if i work them hard and long enough but the tummy is the last thing on my body to tone when im trying to get back in shape:D

Hate tricep kick backs, hate em. Talk back to Cathe and give her attitude every time they come up.
Love legs and everything else.
 
I hate leg presses and regular squats too although I kinda like plie squats. I like lying leg floor work too. Maybe cause I'm lying down.:)
I also hate a lot of ab work (planks, banana holds - torturous!!, planks, those bicycle things, planks - you get the picture). I don't mind working chest and triceps although there are some exercises for each that I kinda hate (one handed dips with the leg extended and pushups). I also kinda like bicep work but because the carrying angle of my arms is large (double jointed), I can't lift a lot of weight. It's rather frustrating.

Chest and biceps are my least favorite. Mostly because they're the hardest. I like doing triceps and shoulders, because I see the results best there.


I'm ambivalent about standing legs these days, since I had my knee surgery. Squats feel a bit strange on my knee because of the way it feels when I bend - almost like it's not quite tracking correctly. I wonder if I should talk to my surgeon about that. If for no other reason than it gives me an excuse to see his cute physician's assistant. }(

I really do like fire walkers too.
 
RE: What is your most and least favorite muscle group t...

I absolutely love back and shoulder work, I just had a revelation doing posterior delt flies, something finally clicked and it feels like a whole new exercise. Heavy one arm rows and pullovers are my favourite exercises.

I like standing and floor work for the legs but I detest static lunges, although, I don't mind walking or explosive lunges.

Take Care
