LATERAL RAISE MACHINE

Exercise Execution:

  • Adjust the seat height and sit facing the machine with your feet flat on the floor around shoulder width apart.
  • Secure your arms in the padding and grip the handles. Look straight ahead. 
  • With a slight bend in the elbows and moving only at the shoulders, begin pushing the weight up until your forearms are just above parallel.
  • Contract your shoulders at the height of the movement and begin slowly lowering the weight using the same semicircle motion you used raise it.
