#Info – Cable One-Arm Lateral Raise

The Cable One-Arm Lateral Raise targets the lateral deltoid, promoting shoulder width and definition. Common mistakes include using too much weight, which can lead to improper form, and swinging the body, which reduces effectiveness. Focus on controlled movements and maintain a slight bend in the elbow. For beginners, start with lighter weights to master the form. Advanced users can increase resistance or add a pause at the top of the movement for increased intensity. Ensure the wrist remains neutral to avoid strain. This exercise can be integrated into upper body routines for balanced shoulder development.
