Killer Shoulder Workout Power Dumbbell Lateral Raises

This is a killer shoulder exercise that my buddy Vince DelMonte showed me while we were working out at the Las Vegas Athletic Club. It’s Power Dumbbell Lateral Raises. It is basically a variation of the standard shoulder lateral raise but it lets you handle about twice as much weight and really overload your shoulders for an awesome muscle pump.



Give it a try in your next shoulder workout and then leave me a comment and let me know how you liked it.

  2. This is great motion, but with a big BUT!!!
    Doing this motion the shoulder is more likely to get injured!
    Every body knows that shoulders are a small muscles which are very much favorable to get injuries.

  3. Is it mainly a negative exercise? Try to control it on the way down?

  4. I agree you could do it a bit slower then I did in the video. This was first time doing the exercise myself so I'm still trying to get the hang of it as well.

  5. I really don't think it has much injury risk if your shoulders are healthy. If the weight is too heavy you just won't be able to get the db up that high and then just drop back down in weight.

  8. I included this in my shoulder routine yesterday. Will definitely be using it again, i will have to work on the form a little better though after watching this again, i kept a little too low whilst raising the arm.
