Fitness Log - Shoulders- Week 6

Standing Shoulder Press - previous: 40kg . now: 40kg
6 6 5 (prog)
Woo! Only failed on the 45kg set. So will start from 42.5 next time.

Standing side lateral raise - previous8kg. Now: 8kg
6 6 6
Did 7.5 today actually. Will stay at 8kg. This exercise is really good for squeezing the shoulders.

Seated DB shoulder press - previous 16. now 17.5kg
666
Surprisingly easy! Maybe because I've been doing 8 reps on the lower weight, so 6 reps on higher weight is easy. Shall try 20 next time.

Front DB raise - previous 8kg. now 10kg
6 6 6 
I completed all sets, but didn't feel like this exercise was really good. It seems to overexert other parts of my body, like my neck and back as I inadvertently have to pull with those parts when my arm has no strength to lift. I may want to find a better shoulder exercise...

I think I will do a new way of the side lateral raise, and do 2 DBs at once, while slightly leaning forward. I think that will work my delts more.
