Favorite body part to condition?
A strange question, yes, but I do love to condition! My answer would be abs or arms/shoulders. What about anyone else???

Nah, not a strange question....there are other people on here who like conditioning too! OK, I hate doing it but afterwards I'm always really glad I did.
I like arms/shoulders first, then abs as a close second. Hate back conditioning but ya gotta do it. Legs and endurance are easy for me because I'm a runner!

I pretty much love everything, but I especially like v-ups and press handstands...and any other handstand variation. Oooh and skin the cats and one-leg candlestick jumps...and both leg! Yeah, like I said, I think I love everything, even back!

I like fun conditioning, like handstands. I don't like things like pushups and situps.

Definitely shoulders.
I just started working on rings strength a little over a year ago after not doing rings for three years (and even when I did them, I never did any high-level strength skills), and discovered that rings strength is actually a lot of fun (especially when there's a mirror in front of my gym's low rings -- it's just so satisfying to hit a cross and be able to see how cool you look doing it)

Some of the polevaulters on my HS track team do rings workouts at my gym. Definitely looks very cool! I'm hoping to possibly join them at some point!
