And just like last time, it will take at least the same again to travel the 8 miles from the depot to my address. Gotta love the Irish way.

My shoulders would usually not be level, sometimes it looks more like kettlebell pressing where you might see a guy tilting to one side. I find I can lift a lot more than half of what I could do with a military press (i.e. I use maybe 27kg dumbbell and no way I would do the same reps with 54kg on a barbell). This could be partly since I feel safer, if I did go to failure with the single dumbbell I can use the other arm to assist. I also usually use a fat gripz on the dumbbell handle and find I lift more, its more comfortable on the palm. I am also probably using momentum a bit more, like a sort of push press. I sometimes use a gripper or empty fat gripz in my free hand and find tensioning it helps the working arm.

Mellor wrote: » I had/have almost the same issue. I never tried to get a spot, but I know if I was out of the hole I'd get a few reps. My solution is currently work the lower weight more, up until 8 or 10 reps, then try again. Seated or standing. How do you keep you shoulders level? Or do you?
