Each type of training has its own peculiarities. Although lateral raises can help strengthen the shoulder, they may not be the ideal exercise for healthy, stable shoulders. There are differences between dumbbell scaptions and lateral raises for upper body training.
The side lifts
The lateral raises represent a classic exercise for training the shoulders. Also called with the technical terms of lateral raises; with dumbbells or at the cable-cross they are lateral abductions, usually performed symmetrically and in an upright position (standing or sitting on the bench There is also the exercise in the unilateral variant and in the position lying on one side, on an inclined bench or on the ground;
Contrary to what one might believe, the technique of performing this exercise is rather complex. To perform the various repetitions in the best way it is necessary to have a great mastery of movement and a great muscular perception. As with doing dumbbell crosses, to perform this exercise correctly, you need to have a good level of strength in your forearms and handlebar grip.
, it is necessary to learn the technique that helps to lift the dumbbells in the most correct way. The use of momentum during lateral raises - an often practiced execution - eventually renders the exercise ineffective. Strength during exercise improves the longer the muscles are under tension. Therefore, bouncing the dumbbells with each repetition defeats the purpose of the exercise.
On the other hand, dumbbel shoulder scaptions are an intentionally controlled movement. The goal is to move the shoulders at a slower pace using lighter weights. Thus the lateral lift is a forceful movement, while the scaptions are more corrective, helping to encourage both resistance and resistance.And shoulder stability.
, as these muscles should form a kind of firm and strong platform for the shoulder.
There are a number of factors that can affect scapular stability, including daily activities or any previous injuries to the shoulder joint. Sometimes the cause of instability is your posture. This is why scaptions are a crucial exercise to include in your training routine for improving shoulder health.
Dumbbel Scaptions focus on the posterior muscles of the upper back which not only help maintain correct and stable posture, but focus on proper scapular alignment and help stabilize the hollow of the shoulder joint. Not only that, they also effectively contribute to strengthening the rotator cuff on the eccentric part of the exercise.
or shoulder injuries. Anatomically, the shoulders are in a risky position of the body. The shoulder joint has a ball shape that allows for a fairly wide range of motion. But without proper shoulder stability, the ball of the upper arm can pop out of the socket, causing partial dislocation of the shoulder.The primary way to help treat shoulder injuries or pain is to improve joint strength through physical therapy. Practicing corrective exercises (such as scaption) as a preventative measure is effective in this regard.
