Title says it all, what's your favorite exercise and why?For me, it definitely would have to be deadlifts, no other exercise gives me the anxiety, sense of accomplishment and endorphins rush like this one. Picking heavy shit up and putting it back down in the truest and most literal sense.

I think deadlifts for me too! And also the heavy ones / low reps. 12 rep max deadlifts are no fun for me.

Deadlifts #1 for me also. But t-bar rows is a very, very close second.

I am so done with squat, bench, dead.

Side lateral raises though are irreplaceable IMO.

I don't know why but deadlifts are so satisfying. Squats a close 2nd.

Lower cable rows. Use to be squats but they scare the fuuk out of me too much when the weight gets up there.

Squatting is a rush. No better feeling. Unracking it, walking it out, letting the bar settle before you descend into the abyss... I love it because you commit wholeheartedly once you unrack it.
