How to perform
To perform the Dumbbell One Arm Lateral Raise With Support, follow these steps:1. Start by standing upright with your feet shoulder-width apart and a dumbbell in your right hand.
2. Place your left hand on a bench or a wall for support. Make sure your back is straight and your core is engaged.
3. Keep a slight bend in your elbow as you raise your right arm out to the side until it is parallel to the floor. Your palm should be facing downwards.
4. Hold the contraction at the top of the movement for a second before slowly lowering the weight back to the starting position.
5. Repeat for the desired number of reps on the right side before switching to the left side.
