Lateral Raise (TB)

LATERAL RAISE (Tb):

 

Muscles worked:
	Primary: Shoulders Secondary: Trapezius
Instructions:
Stand with feet hip-width apart. Put one end of the theraband underneath your right foot. Hold the other end of the theraband in your right hand. Your shoulders should be back, chest out, and back straight with a slight forward lean. With your palm facing your side and your elbow slightly bent, raise your hand outward, away from your side until your hand is slightly above shoulder level. Your palms should now be facing the floor and you should still have a slight bend in the elbows. Return to the starting position in a slow, controlled manner. Switch hands and repeat.
Don'ts:
Don't swing your hand up and then simply drop your hand down without resisting the therabands force. Always use slow, controlled movements.
