Shit you do that you hate, but still do because you want to make it

Squats

I hate doing legs in general, but I hated squats the most, until I made it a point to do them. Now, I love them. Being able to go ATG with progressively heavier weights is a rush, almost comparable to increasing my bench press.

>kettle bell swings
>making it
Literally the DYEL meme exercise of this decade

wat

This sounds like hipster bullshit. Bicep curls are almost the most loved exercise, second only to the bench press. It's fun to do. The only reason why people don't do it more often is because it's inefficient to target the bicep by itself.

>I fucking hate kettle bell swings, but i still do them daily because you really feel that shit.

how do you feel them, and how many do you do

Lying leg curls

i hate it because it stings a lot and feels like my vein is going to burst in the circled area when I do curls

There is a tendon in that area, youre probly doing them wrong and putting stress on the tendon and not the muscle.

fuck barbell rows, so fucking bad that I switched them for cable rows

Im with you, most boring. Hammer curls are better for some reason desu

Reverse curls are 5x better feeling. Forearm pump is superior to bicep pump.

I wouldnt say i hate any exercises, because they bring joy when I see progress.

In terms of preference, i really do not like bench, though it was my favorite lift back in high school. In terms of the internal hellfire thats ignited in my legs, split lunge jumps for height are brutal.

Submerge nuts in a bown of water the night before consumption for optimal nut softness

Never go ATG bruh

Anything involving shoulders at all. Legitimately the only muscle group I get no enjoyment from working but still do because of how noticeable shoulders are

>hard and dry
Try eating fresh, unsalted cashews. Make sure to avoid the bagged stuff at the grocery store because the dispensers have the primest cashews.

>it's inefficient to target the bicep by itself.
What exercise would you recommend instead?

>I fucking hate kettle bell swings
buy better kettle bells

Almost every other compound lift/ exercise that uses the bicep.
>pullups, chinups, rows, db press, ohp...etc etc. Doing bicep curls is good as an accessory once you've made it. Most lifters don't really need it. They just really want bigger biceps without building a base first.

Whoops. I accidentally implied more than I should have

does this also work with my nuts and nut namsayin

It just hurts more in my wrist more than i can feel It in my legs, what gives?

Romanian deadlifts

I feel like my soul is being torn out the back of my legs

I get what you mean, i was doing curls the day after donating blood and noticed a bruise right where the needle entered and got scared for a bit

fucking benchpress, fucking hate it so much it's unreal
if only I could deadlift seven days a week, 365 days a year, I'd reach nirvana. Yeah, one rest day every four years would suffice to keep my nirvana state, I guess.

Fucking this.
Fuck bechpress.
I fucking love OHP tho

Fucking Bulgarian split squats and lunges

I bench 2pl8 and only DL 3.5 and I still agree 100%

Any leg exercise that isn't deadlift.
God how I hate training legs.

Cable rows and face pulls suck ass

Anything for more than 5 reps

I get a stinging in my left elbow and only my left elbow when doing skullcrushers of any type

Duuuuude my favorite podcaster recommends it ! No way they are bad. BTW weed and all the psychedelics should be legally sold in supermarkets ! Expand your mind dude.

I'm not him but I kinda agree.
I got tendinitis like 3 times now because I'm built where my forearm muscle absolutely hates supination.

Split squats.

At medial epicondyle?
I'm just getting back from 2 weeks off with this. Not quite as bad as full-blown golfer's elbow but annoying as fuck.
First time back in the gym was ok, just enough discomfort to know it's healing, without being pain if you know what I mean.

I have always beforehand been doing hammer curls and reverse curls instead of bicep curls. Then the one time I do preacher curls with ez curl bar the next day it started. I'm pretty sure I was cheating the full ROM on my weighted chin-ups too though and muscling through high pulls so that might have contributed.

Are you sure it's from curls? For me it kind of felt like going to full extension on the preacher curls set it off the most. Watch the Jeff video on it, was pretty helpful unironically and some things to rehab/prevent it.

Do heavy dips and db incline bench instead?

Shitty wrist mobility

Fucking calf raises. Do some calves every day because if I force myself to look objectively they are the most lagging always.
Seated ones only seem to do something going to like 20 reps and fucking burns and hurts more than any other exercise, and standing ones feels uncomfortable. I've been doing some stairmaster in place of them some days and that's a bit better because you're at least not just squeezing your burning calves for rep after rep, but it still sucks a bit because doing hard intervals you get pretty exhausted.
Also cardio in general. I like it once I'm doing it (granted I usually just do walks in the nearby woods not too intense) but getting started is the challenge.

Fuckin wide grip bench idk why. Fun to hit a new PR, but then when I'm back grinding out reps submaximal I realize I fucking hate it.

Cardio or anything ab-focused

Based. Weighted chins master race.

Squats. I hate them so fucking much, how can I make them not the worth part of my workout.

Did you not play any sports growing up?
