More Effective Lateral Raises?
By Phil Sims
The deltoids, or “shoulder muscles” are one of those muscle groups that everyone wants to develop. Here’s a quick tip to help you improve your delt training. When performing lateral raises, lean forward slightly to better target the side head of your deltoids. Make sure you keep your back straight and hold good form. Try leaning your chest against a high-incline bench for best results.
Many people tend to lean backwards when doing lateral raises, but doing this shifts most of the workload onto you front delts – which pretty much defeats the whole object of a lateral raise.
man i see pple doin this all the time in my gym man, terrible form jus throwin weights around without a clue.
9 out of 10 people use weight that is far too havy to perform this exercise, they dont give the muscle chance to contract and use too much momentum.
Good way of knowing if you have the correct weight is if you can hold the dumbell at the top of the execution for a brief second then you have your level.
