Workout Question

[jmfargo]

Aside from push-ups, because I hate them with a loathing that will last ages after I have passed on, what is the best way to gain upper-body strength? I'm looking mostly for weight exercises, whether they're free-weight or on a machine.

Any help? I know I've got at least a few people on here that know a bit about working out and are in good shape themselves.

OT, but love your lj name!
Reminds me of the monkey mascot in 3 sheets, with Zane whose-his-face. Which probably isn't a good thing in this post's comments, LOL!

I miss that show so much! I keep hoping the Travel Channel or Discover pick it up. That is exactly where I got the name. I'm kinda like the little monkey; I don't have much to say, but people seem to like me anyway. ;p

LOL...you rock!
He did a traveling 'eats' show, but it went off air rather quickly. I do miss his face though. And poor Pleepeus...so mistreated sometimes...LOL!

Those were the "stunt doubles". They never made the real Pleepleus do the "dangerous" stuff. *G* Who knew a stuffed monkee would need a stunt double?
