hi Cathe:
First let me say that I love your workouts. I'm 36 and never have I felt so healthy and strong. So, thanks.
My questions involves my shoulders. I have been lifting for a few years now, doing your workouts regularly for about a year. I am generally satisfied with my strength and definition gains - except for my shoulders. they are toned but I would like more definition.(You can see the definition when I flex but otherwise they just look like nice toned shoulders.) the problem is I can't seem to make any gains with shoulder strength. Despite lifting regularly I can't do more than 12 lbs on overhead presses, and those only a few and often with bad form! Even tens are difficult and uncomfortable. Could it be that I have just maxed out my shoulder's ability to lift overhead? Maybe my flexibility there is bad? Any thoughts you have will be much appreciated, as I'm really frustrated and tired of languishing in the Land of Eight Pound Presses
Thanks!
Sparrow
