The Benefits - Dumbbell lateral raises will isolate your side deltoids and gives your delt a “round look”. By slightly bending from your waist, you will stress your rear delts as well

Execution - Stand at the straddled position with a dumbbell in each hand and bend forward slightly to keep the balance. Bring the weights together in front of you elbows slightly bent. Lift the weights up to either side at the shoulder level and at the same time turn your wrists slightly inward. Lower the weights slowly resisting all the way down.

Tips - Common mistake with this movement is to rock back and forth and swing the weights up instead of lifting them with the delts. Another mistake is to cheating with traps, keep your shoulders down and try to squeeze your outer delts only. And if you are lifting the weights above your shoulders, it will activate you traps. Anyway, using a heavy weights for a change with a little cheat, you can shock your delts to make them grow!
