Single-Arm Cable Lateral Raise
One arm at a time at the pulley, free hand holding the frame for a stable torso.
How to do it
Setup
Stand sideways to a low pulley, handle in the far hand, free hand on the frame.
Steps
- Raise the arm across and out to shoulder height.
- Lead with the elbow.
- Lower keeping cable tension.
Common mistakes
Leaning away from the stack: the frame hand keeps you honest; stay tall. Swinging off the hip: dead stop each rep. Shrugging: blade down.
Breathing
Exhale opening the arms, inhale lowering.
