Seated Lateral Raise

ShoulderShoulder Strengthening
Written By David Song

SEATED LATERAL RAISE

This is a seated lateral raise exercise that will strengthen the muscles of the shoulder. The seated position is used to decrease the use of full body momentum while raises the arms - this helps to isolate the movement to a pure shoulder exercise. Grip tighter to increase rotator cuff engagement, or loosen the grip to target the larger muscles of the shoulder.

Muscles Involved:

  • Deltoids

  • Upper Trapezius

  • Rotator Cuff

Related Conditions

  • Shoulder Impingement

  • Rotator Cuff Tear

  • Deltoid Strain, Upper Trapezius Strain

  • Neck Pain

  • AC Joint Sprain (late stage rehab)

  • Shoulder Pain
