Fitness Log - Shoulders - Week 3

Standing Shoulder Press - previous: 32.5kg . now: 35kg
6 6 5 (prog) 
Love this exercise too. Hope my injury in my shoulder doesn't come back.. I hit about this weight last time in NUS before an injury made me lay off shoulder press completely. 40kg was tough, only managed to push out 5. I think I may stay at this weight, because I'm missing one week due to being overseas next week. Or maybe do 37.5, 40, 37.5

Standing side lateral raise - previous 6. Now 8kg (up)8kg
6 6 6
This exercise really killed me lol. I held the weight for 1 second at the top of the motion before lowering it, and got a really good workout from this. My left arm felt considerably weaker, and didn't manage to do that hold for my left arm on the last set. Think I'll stay at this weight until I can do a lift-squeeze-lower without too much difficulty for both arms.

Seated DB shoulder press - previous 16. now 16kg (up on reps)
887
Think my shoulders are already really hit from the previous 2 exercises, so couldn't fully do 8 reps on the last set. Considering doing 6 reps of 20kg next time.. will see how I feel after the 2nd exercise in my next workout.

Front DB raise - previous 10kg. now 10kg (stay, controlled), 8kg
6 6 6
My left arm was so hit that I couldn't even lift the 10kg, had to use 8kg. Also did a lift -hold , like the side raises. Think will stay at 10kg for both arms.

The side and front raises really hit hard this week, felt like my shoulder heads got a good workout. Grow grow grow!
