So far so good on day 5, but man I was totally blown away after ready my November issue of Oxygen Magazine. If you subscribe they had and article on how to fix lagging shoulders, page 116, and I thought to myself, dang! I haven’t worked out my shoulders that much at all. I was wondering why my shoulders were looking a little dense after looking at all of the figure models in the magazine and at bodybuilding.com. Their shoulders rocked!! They had sculpt and definition and I really want to work mine too! So now I know what I need to do and I did the workout today and felt great.

I also found a inspiration photo, courtesy of Oxygen Magazine, a picture of Mocha Lee. She is an inspirational fitness professional and I thought her shoulders look awesome!! If you are looking to workout your shoulders too click here and try this great workout from Oxygenmag.com.

Today, was another great day and I stayed away from the scale this morning. Good girl. I ate my meals as planned and I worked out my shoulders like I mentioned above:

1. Seated dumbbell shoulder press 4×10 (5lbs dumbbells)
2. Dumbbell lateral raise 4×10 (same weight
3. Bent-over later raise 4×10
4. Pre-exhaust superset 4×10

In 30 minutes I will be going for a 2 mile walk/jog and either before or after I get back I will workout my chest, lats, bicep, tricep, and back on our bowflex. So saying that I better prepare myself and get movin’

As you know, I am in the process of burning more fat off this body and building more muscle to achieve an overall lean firm physique for this coming summer. Lately I have been researching many products out there on the market that claim to help burn fat and build muscle through a variety of protein shakes, supplements, and pills. Now, I am one not to try pills, but I will definitely try protein shakes.

I recently joined Bodybuilding.com in hopes finding the right shake out there to try since there are so many out there in the market from Myoplex to Whey Gourmet and many more. Many of the professional figure competitors and athletes that came across have recommended me to try CytoSport’s Muscle Milk. So I was like okay!! I was a little reluctant, however intrigued because I have been seeing this product in Oxygen Magazine and other fitness periodicals. Many people have raved that when they use this product they have noticed that their muscle grows faster than gainers, whey or even creatine.

Muscle milk is very easy to use too! I will be using it as a protein substitute for 1 or 2 of my meals during the day in addition to my starchy carb, simple or Fibrous carb for convenience. The flavor I purchased was the strawberry milkshake, however if strawberry is not your thing Muscle Milk comes in many other flavors. Today is my first day trying this and I can not wait to see my progress with it on November 21st.
