I tried something different today and did my workout in the morning. On top of that, I did my workout before having breakfast. I've done that only a couple of times before, but for some reason, I decided to try it today. I actually wasn't that hungry and I lasted the whole workout without feeling hungry, or faint, or even a loss of energy. It just pumped through the routine. Luckily, though, Build: Shoulders is a shorter workout with fewer rounds so that was good.
The one worry I had about this routine is that I have had shoulder pain for the past several weeks. Especially on my left shoulder. One morning I woke up and the pain was just there. It was like I slept on it wrong or something, and I've had pain in my shoulder ever since. It isn't a chronic pain, but when I move my shoulder a certain way, it felt like I was pinching a nerve or something. For that reason, I didn't want to go too heavy, so, as you can see, the weights I chose weren't as heavy as usual. But the high rep sets gave me a good burn. But for the Shrug moves, I went heavy. I enjoyed working out in the morning, and I think I'll do it again next Thursday.
In the end, I burned a very small 346 kcals. One body part in relative isolation and for just over 45 minutes, I knew I couldn't expect too much, but this was a lot lower than I usually burn.
