Dumbbell Incline Rear Lateral Raise
Gym Exercise Card
Equipment
The dumbbell incline rear lateral raise targets the posterior deltoids and upper back muscles. It helps improve shoulder stability and posture by strengthening these areas. The incline position isolates the shoulders more effectively than a standing position.
How to do it
- Position yourself face down on an incline bench, holding a dumbbell in each hand.
- Extend your arms down and slightly forward at shoulder width.
- Raise the dumbbells to the side until your arms are parallel to the ground.
- Hold briefly at the top, then slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position.
- Maintain a slight bend in the elbows throughout the exercise.
