What are some words that are used to describe the sounds made while a person is physically exerting themselves?

I think there are generic terms like grunt or groan, but I am looking for onomatopoeia that can be used in speech or dialogue.

An example of where these types of words might be used could be:

"[insert word here], why won't this thing budge at all! I am pushing as hard as I can..."
