If you’re looking for ways to build your shoulders, you should consider doing the dumbbell lateral rates as a way of getting there. It doesn’t involve much equipment since you only need a pair of dumbbells. However, just because it’s a simple exercise does not mean it is an easy one.

This is a difficult exercise to do even with weights that are not heavy. The importance is to choose a weight that will allow you to get through the number of repetitions that you have chosen.

Muscles 

The main muscle involved is the lateral deltoids more commonly known as the shoulder muscles. However, it also helps to build the anterior deltoid, the supraspinatus and the trapezius muscles which assist the lateral deltoids

Using the Dumbell Lateral Shoulder Raise as a Home Exercise

  1. Stand or sit with a dumbbell in each hand at your sides.
  2. Keep your back straight, brace your core, and then slowly lift the weights out to the side until your arms are parallel with the floor, with the elbow slightly bent.
  3. Then lower them back down, again in measured fashion – you’ll find it all the harder if you avoid speeding up.
