My favourite lifts have to be either pull ups, dips, or front squats... it's very close between those three boys

Deadlift gives me the most pleasure, it's nowhere near as masochistic as the squat.

Depends on the purpose - Squats for effective strength gains, deadlifts as a good show lift for shifting heavy weights and one-handed barbell snatch for shits and giggles and upsetting the PTs in your average chrome-and-fern gyms.

Nah probably deadlifting or overhead pressing. I used to like cleans alot but can not do them at the mo.

At the moment it's box squats for me. I can feel my glutes/hams working again, yeah.

ATM: Its plate pinching (cos i am good at it), thick bar benching/OHPing (cos its very hard and you feel hard doing them) and thick bar D/O deadlifts (combination of the previous two reasons). Oooooooh, and rack pulls with tiny tiny ROM (recently discoverd how much fun it is to hold onto silly weights).

i suppose it would be OHP as i have got better at it, have a stronger core and its good holding a bar with big plates over your head and standing there looking around :016:

Powercleans coz I'm better at 'em compared to my deadlift, also coz I like the dynamic nature of the lift.
OH squats coz they've improved my overhead shoulder strength (obviously) and also my front squat a lot.
Hate box squats at the moment but Im determined to love em!
