What’s going on guys! In today’s video I’m gonna show you 5 of the WORST lateral raise mistakes that I see made in the gym and how to fix them, so you can start getting more out of your workouts!

🚨 MISTAKE #1 - RESTING AT THE BOTTOM!
- This mistake takes place between each rep performed as you return back down to starting position, and it’s just that slight rest between reps we usually do without fully noticing it. Next time, go straight into your next rep instead of pausing at the bottom.

🚨 MISTAKE #2 - CREATING MOMENTUM WITH YOUR LOWER BODY
- First, to avoid using momentum in your upper body I would recommend starting with the dumbbells at your side - instead of in front of you. If you have them in front of you, there is typically a slight burst of momentum in the beginning of the movement. Once that is cleared, make sure you aren’t bouncing with your knees to get the weight you’re using up. If you have to bounce to move the weight - it’s too heavy. Drop the ego, drop the weight and perform the movement without bouncing.

🚨 MISTAKE #3 - NOT CONTROLLING THE ECCENTRIC CONTRACTION
- This is usually a result of going too heavy, but it could also just be you not focusing on that part of the exercise. Basically, don’t drop the weight back down. You should be able to fully control the weight on the return down. If you have to drop the weight and can’t control it - you’re going to heavy. Drop the weight you’re using and control the weight vs the weight controlling you.

🚨 MISTAKE #4 - PRESSING THE WEIGHT UP AND NOT OUTWARD
- When you focus on lifting the weight up - you’re much more likely to engage your traps instead of just your deltoids. By focusing on pressing the weigh outward, you’re a-lot more likely to keep your shoulders depressed and more likely to isolate that deltoid as much as possible vs shrugging the weight up.

🚨 MISTAKE #5 - RAISING THE WEIGHT UP TOO HIGH
- When you think lateral raise, you typically think raising the weight up as high as you can. Instead, you want to stop when your elbow is in level with your shoulders.
