Açıklama
The bent-over lateral raise is an isolation exercise that targets the posterior deltoid and upper back muscles. This exercise is critically important for developing the rear shoulders and completing the three-dimensional appearance of the shoulders. The bent-over position allows for better isolation of the posterior deltoid muscles. It also engages the rhomboid and trapezius muscles. Using dumbbells provides a joint-friendly range of motion. This exercise can be particularly helpful in correcting the rounded shoulder posture commonly seen in desk workers.

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding dumbbells in both hands

Önemli Noktalar
- ✓Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and lean forward with a slight bend in the knees
- ✓Your back should be flat, not rounded at the lower back
- ✓Arms should hang perpendicular to the floor with elbows slightly bent
- ✓Feel the posterior deltoid working as you raise the arms out to the sides
- ✓Squeeze and hold the contraction for 1–2 seconds at the top of the movement
Yaygın Hatalar
- ✗Rounding the back — increases the risk of lower back injury
- ✗Moving too fast — using momentum reduces muscle engagement
- ✗Swinging the weight — bypasses the target muscle
- ✗Leaning the body over too far — creates lower back stress
- ✗Fully extending the elbows — increases joint pressure
Nefes Kontrolü
Exhale as you raise the arms up, inhale as you lower them. Try not to hold your breath.
