@@AironNoriaLong Because you can't lift too much weight with the side delts. You can try heavier weights using a little bit of momentum to lift the weight up and then control the descend as much as you can. But if you want fully controlled reps, you most likely are going to have to use light weights, and be patient with the weight increments.
I cam do them pretty easily and was ready to progress to 18kg but then a string breaking or stretching at the back of left shoulder type thing started now i am sacred to do even with 10kgs
Thank you so much! I’ve been doing db lateral raises with 15 lbs for 6 weeks straight every other day now! Decided it was time to put it to a stop because my shoulder kept bugging me. Decided to look up how to fix shoulder pain from db lateral raises and thankfully came across your video! Now I feel no pain once so ever in my shoulder anymore and I owe it all to you. Thank you friend!
“Proper form” is generally just slightly bent at the hips, slight bend at the elbow and raise out to the side, search Davis Diley Lateral Raise form, he has a great, accurate and concise short on how to do it
Man thank you so much, my shoulder was actually killing me, even 2.5 kg lateral raises gave me much pain, it felt like a hot iron knife stabbing my shoulder, but this fixed like 90% of it.
I started working out around 2 months ago and from using 7.5 on lateral raises ive gone comfortably using 20. I hope i keep progressing well and ill keep training my shoulders well
So many people do this exercise with way more weight than they really need too. There ways ti progressively overload a movement without necessarily adding weight each time.
I see young men in the gym consistently picking up heavier DBs than they need 🤦♂️they never listen and I know they are going to end up watching these videos in about 10 years.
Use the cable set up its easier to control on the eccentric and you get full range of motion on the side delts without the traps. just brace yourself on the opposite vertical bar.
I find that pronated lateral raises on 60 degree incline really unlocks the entire lateral head of my shoulder. Mix it with Lu raises for high rep low weight makes a really efficient workout
Could you tell me a solution to shoulder pain with movements like dumbbell rows and overhead presses? I hear a popping sound and pain but only on one shoulder
I have grinding shoulders, every time I do shoulder shrugs(not working out) or lateral raises they grind, doesn’t hurt but have had it since I was a kid from over working myself playing baseball
I have a problem too. I can not perform hammer curls with my left hand but it's okay for my right hand. I think i have weak muscles in my back but i don't know how to train them
I too have issue with lateral raises. But mines are a bit different, my left trap is tightening everytime i perform lateral raises on my left arm. ill try this one maybe it'll fix it.
When doing lateral raises, keep your shoulders down so you dont have upper trap engagement lile this guy. But also, you probably have a greater weakness on the posterior chain like this guy. Id do the exercise the doc recommends here, but id also add in seated dumbbell external rotation exercises.
I focus lats specifically for a day, mainly do 3 sets of 10 reps with 20lbs after that I’ll hit lat press and go for 100lbs and then I’ll finish off with some good ole pull ups. But I’m only 140
Surely the upper traps 'compensate' by lifting the scapula and creating more space for the humerus to move in the sub acromial space. The upper traps cannot abduct the arm
Lateral raises is honestly one of those either you got it or you don't exercises. There is no cheat, no gym gear hack, no trick, it's either you trained up to it or you didn't
Ive been told upper trap activation also happens because of picking weights that are actually too heavy for me, so you kinda compensate. Is that also true?
What about exclusively front felt pain on lateral raises and pressing motions? I’ve been dealing with it for months and stretching doesn’t seem to help.
People who study muscles and physical therapy are so goofy, but are a godsend, you would go to them like: “I can’t do a push up” and they would go: “Ohhh you might have a problem with your deltosaurus lateralis. You only need to twerk for 20 seconds for 3 sets” And then after a session you could suddenly do 20 handstand push up Thank you Squat University!
