pushing big gears

I'm considering a single speed. But what do you do when you get to a hill and you're riding a 48/16?
Can anyone share their techniques or training for pushing those big gears up that hill?
Do you sit and grind? Stand and pray? Curse and walk? Are singles only for those blessed
with bullet proof knees and thighs the size of beach balls?
