Dumbbell Rear Lateral Raise

Expert Advice

Keep your core engaged and avoid using momentum to lift the weights; control is key for targeting the shoulder muscles effectively.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand at your sides.
  2. Slightly bend your knees and hinge forward at the hips, keeping your back straight.
  3. With a slight bend in your elbows, raise the dumbbells straight out to your sides until they are in line with your shoulders.
  4. Pause at the top of the movement, then slowly lower the weights back to the starting position.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
