The Proper Technique for Performing Dumbbell Lateral Raises



Here are the keys to the exercise:

1) Use a light to moderate weight. If the dumbbells are too heavy then you risk injury and compromise form.

2) Turn your hands to the outside as you lift the weight. This action will work the delts to a higher degree.

3) Do not use momentum of other muscles to move the weights. This would totally defeat the purpose of the exercise and minimize the necessary work of the shoulders.

4) The rest time between sets should be at a minimum at 30 - 45 seconds. The shoulders recover quickly and you can decrease the overall time it takes to achieve a burn and exhaustion for the exercise with decreased rest in between sets.
