Love a good shoulder workout!

I’ve been following the gorgeous Dana Linn Bailey lately and really wanted to try this shoulder workout.  I did it last night at the gym and loved it!  I did five sets: 5kg, 7kg, 10kg, and two at 15kg.  Because of using the same weight for the full quad-set, I decided to start very light as I wasn't sure what I could maintain, especially with the front raises.  Next time I’ll work up from 10kg and see where I'm at by set four :-).  This is a little video of my 10kg set.  No wonder DLB’s delts are like they are, she does her sets at 38.5kg, gulp! 


Today my head has been in a strange space and I need to shake it.  I’m sure we all have days like this, where we know what we want and where we want to go, but recognise that there are a number of bloody big mountains to climb before we get there.  Fitness-wise I have been for a walk in the fresh air and sunshine but that’s about it today.  Being in a mental funk can affect so many other aspects of your day, don't you think?  An early night might be what I need, and tomorrow I'm going out for a big bush walk / run which I really need before going back to work next week.  Being out in nature is so good for the soul!  

Be kind; to yourself and others :-D xxx
