ChelseaDagger Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I love working out my arms and upper back. I've had back issues in the past and I love knowing that I am making my back stronger with every set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xevious Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Doing biceps and triceps used to be my favorite, but nowadays I enjoy doing legs the most, which is quite surprising, since that used to be my most hated workout. I like training my legs because the exercises are so full-on...You really have to use your whole body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dash Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 For my workout, I use a NuStepper, leg press, and machines for triceps, biceps, and lats. I have a torn meniscus in my knee so I have been unable to exercise my legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntz01 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Has to be quads. After a good session, I can't get up the 3 flights of stairs to my apartment. That's when you know you're training hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porfirio Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 As flavors of the month come and go, these days I've taken quite dedicatedly to bicep training.Standing, full-range curls with 20lb dumbbells incorporating gradual extension and quick lift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greggoires Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Has To Be Legs... 4 sets of walking lunges, multi direction lunges,front squats and stiff leg deadlifts and they,are,COOKING! OUCH Then feed them with plants... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStorm Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Definitly Gluteus, Hamstrings and quadriceps.I feel more down to earth whitch gives me a powerfull and strong feeling." My legs will carry me".A nice bonus is the extra burn since they are large muscle groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegannick Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I really enjoy training every muscle group equally. And even though I hate doing legs, I still enjoy and feel great after my leg workout. I look forward to going to the gym every day and on rest days I wish I was there. I just started running again using the barefoot technology(haven't ran in about 15 years do to my knees, but since using these shoes, my knees are completely fine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 For me I have to say it is shoulders. I am such a yogi that if I neglect my shoulder workout I can tell in yoga when it comes time to hold all the warrior II poses and triangle poses. My shoulders get tired from holding my arms up and I have to drop them to recover. But my second favorite is my back and I am trying to strengthen it up from working in nursing homes damaging and injuring it many times over the years.

phatbottom Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I just started lifting weights. I'm really loving working my back. Makes me feel strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
courtneym Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Abs! Building my core helps me in my running and biking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWork42 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 It is hard to choose which group is my favorite. I enjoy training all of them. I love the pump I get for training my chest and my arms. I love how strong I feel training my back and legs. I really like to train my shoulders because of how they are the top of the V cut body shape. If I had to choose, I would say arms. No wait, shoulders. It is shoulders because of how strong it makes me feel and how they help to make you look like you are in shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimhadd Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Abs, I've always wanted a flat stomached, and this year it is going to happen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Migueljr Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 For me i like to workout legs the most because i would like to get them stronger so that would not want to get to use a cane one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kckas Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I love working my biceps and triceps because I enjoy the exercises and it makes me feel strong! I can lift just as much weight as half the guys at the gym which rocks (I'm female)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greengirl Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I like this one, LOVE my VEGA! Ok - ABS! I love going waking up the next morning and feeling that burn thinking "oh right!!!"I love training legs because ever since building the muscle my knees have been pain free! But that being said I love training arms because I feel stronger and stronger everyday!! When your trainer's daughter says she wants to bust with you, that's a GOOD thing to hear!!

michaelahlers Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Quadriceps femoris muscle. These rippling powerhouses let me laugh as I ride my bike up even the longest, steepest climbs. My runner-up is the triceps surae muscle. Because there have been times where mine were bigger than Cheeke's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaraTonin Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Legs because they are my weakest. 28 years of over eating has really done damage. Finally getting stronger and toned!! I kind of live the leg press at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divamom Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 arms...legs...butt... love em all! I am a selfish vain person at the core, hate when I jiggle and I love that it is cheaper than a plastic surgeon that my butt is still UP at 50. I saw a phrase on the back of a semi celeb pic once and it said, "Glutes that salute", so been going for that..as I am already a "Girl with Guns!" so, I work out almost every day to be happy and like ME. I don't care if anyone else does (they do) but its impotent I like me...as the result is...thers do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veganrunningdad Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 My favorite muscle group to work is my core. This is because strong core is essential for running, biking and swimming. A strong core also helps maintain good posture! -e Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp6uh88 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 My favorite workout is the Arnold's Chest+Back routine. It gives me an amazing pump and there is nothing better than pumped chest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsc2011 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 OMG- Love the protein!!!!!!!!!!!! My favorite muscle group to train is a tie between abs and arms. Why a Tie? (look at me rhyme!)Because I see the definition in my arms so fast and love seeing the muscle when I lift.BUT- I love working my abs because this is an area where I tend to store fat first and gain weight and I love the burn as I crunch and curl...makes me feel like I am making progress here. Great contest! Looking forward to more!!Thanks Robert! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jungleinthefrunk Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Legs, because nothing beats struggling to walk out of the gym or sit down on the toilet the next day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1yrvegan Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 My favorite muscle group to work out is arms and abs. Arms because its nice seeing the definition improve quickly. I like working the abs because thats my biggest trouble area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
