How to Do the Lateral Raise

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold a dumbbell in each hand, palms facing your body. Keep your back straight and engage your core. Raise your arms out to the sides until they are parallel to the floor, keeping a slight bend in your elbows. Pause for a moment at the top, then slowly lower your arms back down to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
