The Workout Room Straight Bar Shoulder Presses

It was shoulder day at the gym!

Shoulder day used to be my least favourite day because I had weak shoulders and tendonitis. However, when you work hard and you get strong, it moves you to work harder and love it more.

This is one of my favourites.

Take a barbell and, with one leg in front and one leg behind, do a deep lunge - then raise the bar over your head, lowering it down deep in the back and coming back over your head to lower it in the front.
Back, front, back, front, until you have done 20.

That is: 1-front, 2 - back, 3 - front and so on.

Front - back does NOT equal one rep!! Do 3 sets of these.

As you can see, the bar is heavy enough.

You do not need to add weight. IT WORKS.
