The most hated exercises
 

Hey I just had a question for you all and that is what exercise or types of exercise do you just hate? I know some people hate running, others hate ab work, some hate the stair stepper etc etc. Personally for me, I hate lunges and the variations of them. I don't know why but they are my own personal **** and have been forever. Even when I was smaller I couldn't stand them! I'd rather stick needles in my eyes! I also hate mountain climbers! The are second to the lunges though and I would do them over lunges any day.

Lots of exercises I used to hate I've learned to love, but I absolutely loathe Burpees. I can't even do one without feeling like I want to die.

I will never, ever learn to like them.

HATE the stair mill and running though I do them both cause they burn a ton of calories super fast.

I dont like using the jump rope. At all. Maybe one day I will. I used to hate running and now I like it.

These are the exercises I have a hard time doing WITHOUT modifying them.

-Jumping jacks
-Push-ups
-Jump rope

I'm slowly trying to make my body do these, but I always end up going back to the modified versions.

I'm not wild about spinning ... don't know why because I like to ride my bike outside. But the indoor spinning class just never really did much for me.

burpees are ****. But such an amazing workout

Excuse my ignorance but...what are burpees?

My most hated exercise is anything I have to do in silence and the stair machines. I hate all that climbing, does my head in. I love pretty much anything else though, especially dancing type workouts and running.

I used to hate lunges and squats then I did a lot of them and now I don't mind them. Mountain climbers I don't like only b/c I can't do them well.

I don't especially like doing the twenty million step-ups my trainer sometimes has me do. I am uncoordinated and often end up dizzy because I forget which foot is next!

I detest bouncy exercises - like jumping jacks. Evil, evil. I guess a sports bra would help. I logged thousands and thousands of exercise hours last year and still don't own one.

It changes depending on my life. I just try to tell myself that the more I dislike it, the more I probably need to do it. YMMV.

Lunges and squats. I DETEST them. I know I need to do them though.

Aerobics classes. Anything that requires music and me to keep time and be coordinated. I can't help but laugh and snort at myself everytime I try one of these accursed things. The thing is that I never feel like I get a good workout because I spend so much time milling around laughing and trying to catch up to what the coordinated people with rythym are doing.

LOL, whatever yoga pose I'm working on that is too hard for me still.
