What's your favorite weight training exercise?

[butthole69]

Deadlifts. Also I love hammer strength machines but they can be hard to find.

What's the one where you take the weight and lift it and then put it back down again? Yeah that one

Deadlift?

Pull ups I read years ago that Arnold Schwarzenegger would do 50 reps how ever many sets it took to get there. When i first started i think i could do like 5 now i get 20 reps on my first set, i start every back workout with 50 pullups

Deadlifts,push ups and Squats Re my favorite workouts. I do these exercises in the gym and i think these are best workouts for weight training.

I was thinking about this today at the gym. I am curious what you folks favorite exercise in the weight room is.

Mine is dips. I have been doing them twice a week for 6 years now, and can damn near do them forever, it seems. I remember on my 42nd birthday a few years ago, I set out to do 42 proper dips and ended up with 50. On the other hand, my least favorite exercise that I do is dumbbell flyes...don't know why, I just don't care for them...

So, lets hear it guys...

Used to love dips but my delts take over too much and started getting tweaked as time went by.

You might want to try talking to your gym manager about getting one, cause you never know!

 

[Phoe2006]

Right but I'm buying a new house and moving an hour away in 20 days so new gym and bigger so not any point really

 

[Big-John]

Def deadlift!

 

[dorian777]

Deads for sure. If you're ever feeling energetic, try supersetting squats with stiff-legged dl. You'll grow my friend!

I'm sure you would grow from those....

Tough call. There's always something to be said for getting a huge pump from dumbbell or barbell curls. LOL. But, right now it's between benching and deadlifting, only because I'm into heavier stuff at the moment. Love starting the day with 50 pull ups right after I wake up, also.
