Bookmark this as your ultimate guide to standing dumbbell lateral raises. You're chasing too much weight on dumbbell lateral raises and it's costing you gains: Setting up and executing properly will not only require less weight but will be more effective for growing massive delts. Cues: 1. The starting position of the dumbbells should be in front of you. Hinging at the hips and having a slight forward lean make this possible 2. Push the dumbbells down, then out, scraping the floors, then the walls. This should help reduce trap involvement and keep it in the delts. 3. Raise the weight at a 30° to 40° angle out in front of you not directly to the sides. This also will help reduce trap involvement. 4. Pick a weight that you can lower under control to reduce swinging and momentum. 5. As always imagine you're lifting twice the weight on the way up. This cue should be a reminder for proper force production. Always under control
