Written By David Song

SHOULDER LEAN BANDED LATERAL RAISE

This exercise is used to strengthen the muscles responsible for shoulder abduction. Start by leaning against a wall with your shoulder, with the band anchored to the floor near the wall. Hold the free end of the band with a mid pronation grip (thumbs forwards) and maintain this wrist orientation during the entire exercise. While keeping the spine in neutral alignment, abduct the shoulder to extend the band towards the ceiling. Raise the arm to roughly shoulder height and lower back down to starting position (hand starting near the front of your groin).

Muscles involved:

  • supraspinatus

  • lateral deltoid

Related conditions:

  • deltoid strain

  • supraspinatus strain / supraspinatus tear

  • supraspinatus tendinitis / tendonitis

  • rotator cuff tendonitis

  • dynamic shoulder instability

  • glenohumeral labral tear

  • shoulder dislocation / shoulder subluxation
