I believe some people still know about the upright dumbbell lateral raise. Of course, the upright dumbbell lateral raise has some benefits, but many people don't know about the upright dumbbell lateral raise. Some people still know the correct movement of lateral raises. So what is the correct form for the upright dumbbell lateral raise? Let’s learn about the correct actions together!
Correct Actions for Upright Dumbbell Lateral Raise
Lateral raises are also an effective movement during our exercise. We hold a dumbbell in each hand and let the arms hang naturally. Stand up straight with your chest and abdomen raised, open our arms to both sides of our body, and lift them up, like a bird flying high with open wings, until our arms can be in a straight line with our shoulders above, indicating that our actions are in place. Then we slowly return the arm to its original position, and then restart the movement. Complete a set of 20 moves at a time.
Where to practice upright dumbbell lateral raises
This action mainly exercises the deltoid muscle that ends at the humerus. The deltoid muscles move the hips precisely in all planes when lifting heavy objects. You can work your deltoid muscles more effectively by changing the starting position of the movement (hands at your sides, behind your hips, or in front of your thighs).
Precautions for the upright dumbbell lateral raise
1. If you slightly bend your elbows and wrists while holding the bell to both sides, you will feel that the deltoid muscles can contract better. Of course, you need to pay attention to the thought during the entire movement. Focus on the contracted rear deltoid muscles.
2. During the entire movement, keep your back and lower back straight and tight, otherwise the lower back will be easily injured. Of course, it is best to wear a protective belt.
3. When lifting or lowering the bell, the upper body cannot swing up and down, and the lower limbs should not lift the heels. Use the strength of the deltoid muscles to control when restoring.
