HIIT cardio wots that?

Old thread I know, but for me its calves. Its the one that hurts more than any when I push it to failure. Try drop sets on them and they sting like hell. The used to be the last of my leg exercises but now I've move them to shoulders day to give them a proper blast now.

Love doing calves the burn you get is awesome but then again I like pain lol.

Hate squats, have thrown up a few times doing them!

wow, you must train really hard. Hard to do them that intense without a spotter though!

hate side lateral raises. My delts tend to burn really quickly when doing them and my neck also tends to get tense, then my traps kick in, I also tend to go a rosy shade of purple on my last set! I hate them with a passion, but they are a necessary evil so I stick at 'em!

Another one I don't like much is preacher curls, kill my forearms.

with any laterals make sure youre not going too heavy. i know a lot of us, myself included, like to go pick up the big weights and look manly, but delts dont need to be worked really heavy in the lateral motions as you can injure your back, and besides, they can react to lighter wieght than other body parts.

Hi exactly,

I don't go particularly heavy with side laterals, just heavy enough to do some strict reps unassisted. With all my training i concentrate on my form rather than the weight I use. I don't need to throw weight around and look manly as i am a wee lass!

Your right though, can get some real back problems with side raises when shifting some heavy weights.

cheers
