    I'll try it when I get home from work! I'll have to check out how to do them when I get home too. YouTube is blocked here (I work at a school). Thanks for the challenge!!:flowerforyou:

    Did it! Yay! Bit wobbly on the last 20 but did it. Thank you for setting this mini challenge, if I hadn't seen it I wouldn't have done any exercise today as I am full of a head cold and full of self-pity. Feel a bit better already. Thank you.:smile:

    Done :) Did 3 sets 25/35/40...how can these be recorded?

    I record them as Shoulder Press in the strength section. Since I sometime start off using heavier weights and doing longer sets than I finish off with, I sometimes enter the exercise multiple times so that if I want to go back and see what I did, I get an accurate look. (ie 2 sets, 20 reps, 7 lbs, 2 sets 20 reps, 5 pounds, etc). MFP doesn't give you a calorie burn for strength exercises, but I've worn a heart-rate monitor while doing weight training and I can see I'm burning calories, but it is what it is.
