toolman - If you keep at this long enough - the parts you hate now will be the ones you love doing later because of the results. :)

I hate to exercise my mouth. It's a pet peave of mine when the lazy people at the gym come up and start talking to me for like five minutes while I'm in the middle of working out. I'm very strict with the time I take between sets (90 sec). I think you guys know who I'm talking about. I think every gym has them.

I am with dscaro...I try to get in and out and can not stand it when you have 3-4 people using the equipment I want and stand there talking for half hour. I do not like doing deadlifts cause they are so hard but I love em for the results. I feel that way about everybody part as well LOL.

I feel the same way mutt. I love all the muscle groups, but there are a few movements that I don't like. I don't like shrugs because my grip gives out (even with straps) before my traps do. My hands must be weak and puny LMAO.

I just picked up a new t-shirt that says "Shut the F... and train." I wore it for the first time to the gym 2 days ago. This dork came up to me while I'm in the middle of lifting (shoulder presses) and starts flappin' the jaws about nothing. I finished my set, stood up, and pointed to my shirt. He just went "Oh..." and walked away. At that moment, it was worth EVERY PENNY!!!
LOL!
