Following on from yesterdays post…

I am working out with the TT DB-BW 8 week fat loss manual and I am unclear on a couple of points and could really do with your advice:

2) I have a real struggle with the ‘DB Rear Delt Raise’ weight training exercise, I find it extremely hard to push my arms up and out to the side, in the manner that Craig Ballantyne describes, with any weight in my hands – what can you suggest I do and will it improve?

The way Craig Ballantyne has described the exercise you need to make sure that you have a light enough weight. You really should not experience any pain when you do this exercise.

If you do not have access to light enough weights or find it painful or hard with the light weights then you should change the exercise slightly.

Try bending the elbows so that the load is reduced as there is less of a long lever pulling on the shoulder. It is quite easy to injure your shoulder with an exercise like that so it’s better to be safe than sorry.

I’ll try and do a quick video to show the alternatives and post it up next week.

Tomorrow I’ll finish James’s questions by answering this one:

3) Craig insists on a 1 minute rest between the supersets. As performance increases, and to increase the intensity of the workout, can these rest times be reduced to, say, 45 or 30 seconds?
