How to Hammer Strength Plate-Loaded Lateral Raise
Starting Position
1. Sit on the machine seat, lean your back against the backrest, and keep your back straight.
2. Firmly place your feet on the floor, and hold the handles with your elbows slightly bent at your sides.
3. Relax your shoulders and prepare to keep your neck tension-free.
Proper Form
1. Raise your arms to shoulder height while keeping your elbow angle maintained.
2. If you feel a burning sensation in the side of your shoulders, pause for a moment and then slowly return to the starting position.
3. Keep your upper body fixed against the backrest to prevent your torso from swaying.
4. Focus on the shoulder movement without using momentum and repeat.
Breathing Technique
Exhale when you lift your arms, and inhale when you return to the starting position while lowering your arms.
Precautions
1. Using excessive weight puts a lot of strain on the shoulder joints, so focus on precise stimulation with lighter weights.
2. Do not extend your arms too much or bend them too much; maintain a moderate angle.
3. Do not lift as if throwing; move slowly and with control.
