Also deadlifts for me. Always been my strongest lift, and I love the shaky feeling I get after a bunch of sets.

I must be odd cause I love working back, my favorite lift would be any kind of a row, be it seated on the machine or standing with the straight bar or using the T- bar, I love doing rows. I get that great stretch you can feel all through your back and down the lats and that perfect squeeze at the end with shoulders back and chest out.

I love doing BB curls in the rack....lol

Seriously though, my favourite is squats. Nothing gets me more fired up than ripping out a good set of squats with the ipod on wide open. Plus I miss them these days.

My fav would be squats. Mostly because it was the first real heavy weight I did but also because it just feels like your entire body is battling the weight while it's trying to kill you.

Bench Press hands down. I love the feeling of squeezing the bar, taking a deep breath and then feeling the heavy weight in my hands as I lift off. Singles and doubles are my favorites.

Squizzzats.......Nothing pushes my mental drive, pain tolerance and physical strength like a deep squat. Also like them because not very many people do squats....the list of excuses is endless. As for deads, I think my technique is flawed. At about 5 plates my low back starts getting unstable.....whatever tho, work in progress.


I like deads myself... and at 495 you should start getting a little unstable... stop showing off... :cool:
