It stands for Myofascial Energetic Length Technique and is self-treatment for fascia. I can do such wonderful things as neck and low back decompression techniques and lengthen the myofascial lines. It is a technique using either a soft foam foller or small balls (for hands and feet). It can stand alone or can be done after cardio to straighten back up or before strength to start with a body that is in better alignment.

Anything dynamic with cables: moving wood chops, tricep push downs with one leg hop, chest presses with moving lunges....
Anything that requires quick fast powerful movement. Jumping, short sprint. Stuff like playing tag, running after a ball. Any type of activity that lets me play like a child.
I wish I had more folks my age who enjoy playing without inhibition. I love unstructured fun.

I'm a big fan of a good old-fashioned squat (either weighted or not weighted). If done correctly, I think it's hard to find another exercise that's as efficient as squatting.
Just one?!?! Snatch, then power clean, then deadlift, then squat, then....well you get the idea.
Combination 10 Rep Exercise Holding a Sandbag. Starting in Push Up Position, complete:
Push Up - Power Up - Dead lift - Bent Over Row (with pause at top) - Power Clean - Rotational Press (right) - Forward Lunge (right) - Push Press - Reverse Lunge (right) - Squat (with pause at bottom, Hop at top).
Repeat :) - completing the rotational press, forward and reverse lunges to the left side.

I love swimming in the ocean. I shouldn't, but often do swim way too hard and way too long. It is the one form of exercise that I literally have to make sure that I have something on my schedule to make me stop doing it.
OH, and as a follow up. Aquatic exercise is one of the most adaptable mediums you can workout in. If you don't know what I am talking about, you really should learn more.
I teach CECs on aquatic exercise that would blow your mind.

My favorite exercise is farms walk or suit case carries. I feel so great if i get both of those into the same workout - its like my whole day seems brighter!
And I love working core in varying water depths. There are some awesome core exercises that can only be done in water.
