Wicked Wednesday

This was an early morning session.  Shoulders done in the gym.  I am really NOT a fan of working out before lunch, but it was the only opportunity that I had.

So...

Dumbell shoulder press: 1 x 10 @ 15kg, 1 x 8 @ 20kg, 3 x 5 @ 25kg
Wide grip lat pulldown: 1 x 10 @ 45kg, 1 x 8 @ 60kg, 3 x 5 @ 80kg
Shoulder raise machine: 1 x 10 @ '7', 1 x 8 @ '9', 3 x 5 @ '12'
Dumbell curl: 1 x 10 @ 15kg, 1 x 8 @ 20kg, 3 x 5 @ 25kg


Shoulders are getting there.  I did try the 30kg dumbells, but that didn't quite work and either I couldn't find or the gym don't have 27.5kg dumbells.  Lat pulldown felt good, although it pinched my back from when I hurt it deadlifting.  Shoulder raise machine was OK and the first time I've used it in anger.  On the 3 x 5 set of DB curls, I did more on my left hand side as there's a visible size difference and that is the side that I lose form on alarmingly quickly - so I need my left bicep to catch up to my right bicep - so it's doing more volume, I actually did 8 x 5/8 x 5 and 15 x 5 (the last set to failure).
