One-arm side laterals help improve shoulder balance and strength while allowing strict control on each side.
Instructions
- Hold a dumbbell in one hand, and lightly grip a stable surface with the other.
- Lean slightly away from the support, keeping your back straight.
- Raise the dumbbell to the side with a soft elbow and slight forward tilt.
- Lift until your arm is parallel to the floor, then pause briefly.
- Lower with control and repeat for reps, then switch arms.
