How to Perform Dumbbell Lateral Raise
How to Perform Dumbbell Lateral Raise - IC Fitness Club
Dumbbell lateral raise is a strength-training exercise that targets the shoulders, specifically the lateral deltoids. Here are the steps to perform a dumbbell lateral raise:
- Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees locked, and hold a dumbbell in each hand at your sides with your palms facing inward.
- Keep your back straight, chest up, and engage your core muscles.
- Slowly lift the dumbbells to the side of your body, keeping your arms straight, and raising them to shoulder level.
- Hold the position for a second, squeezing your shoulder blades together, then slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
It's important to keep the movement slow and controlled to engage the correct muscles and prevent injury. Start with lighter weights and gradually increase as you get comfortable with the exercise.
Maximum clients in the gyms perform the dumbbell lateral raise in the wrong form, They Bend the Elbow and then perform the exercise, however middle (lateral deltoid) originates from acromion process of scapula and inserts into deltoid tuberosity of humerus.
Lateral Deltoid only covers the shoulder joint (Gleno humeral joint) thus it can perform its joint actions (Shoulder abduction) only on Shoulder joint.
Lateral Deltoid has no co-relation with elbow joint, thus we must not bend our elbow during dumbbell lateral raise.
