My shoulders.

Would it be classified as overly competitive if I refused to let a 4 year old beat me at chutes and ladders?

I meant what I liked on other people - I only have a vague narrowing between my delts and tris at the moment (but it will come)
but this is good , so far :
shoulders - 3
chest - 1
triceps - 1

Oh sorry well in that case it would be breasts. They are muscles right?

I'm a sucker for defined abs - on men and women. Show me a 6-pack and I'm yours.

i'll go ahead and say shoulders for both, but i'm going to have to jump in with hec on the breasts thing. even though they're not technically a muscle, there are muscles in the general area...

ok, so while we women seem to rate nice shoulders on each other, men are more interested in our legs,ass and breasts - now why doesn't that surprise me?!

MEN----->I don't know the exact muscle group that it responsible for it, but I love the dent between the lower abs and the upper leg.

WOMEN---->Annie, I'm with you honey...the first one I see will be deemed the best muscle in the world. (I'm confident that one day here shortly my glutes are going to make a dramatic appearance):laugh::laugh:

Women...legs (the whole leg) and shoulders. There is this trainer at the gym I go to that is in great shape. She seems to run on the treadmill at the same time as I do, and her machine is always in the row in front of mine...it's crazy. Anyway, it's the best motivator in the world. I run like poo when she is not there.
