Some Basic Facts About Developing The Deltoid Shoulder Muscles

The deltoid (shoulder muscle) extends from the shoulder joint and attaches to the top of the humerus (the upper arm bone) forming the shape of an upside-down triangle or “delta”, thus the name, deltoid muscles. What one has to know in order to build an esthetically developed deltoid muscle is that there are three major parts or “heads” of this muscle. There is the frontal head (developed with exercises such as the frontal barbell and dumbbell presses). There is the lateral head of this muscle (developed with exercises such as the standing lateral dumbbell raises) and there is the rear head of the deltoid (developed by exercises such as is featured in this article) – the dumbbell bent over lateral rear raises.

The 7 Key Tips How to Do the Dumbbell Bent over Lateral Rear Raises

Tip #1 – Place Your Feet Shoulder’s Width Apart with a Dumbbell in Each Hand.

Tip #2 – Bend Forward Carefully at the Waist.

Tip #3 – Maintain Your Upper Body Parallel to the Floor with Arms Hanging Straight Down.

Tip #4 – Turn the Palms Facing Each Other.

Tip #5 – Pull Your Arms Apart while Moving Your Elbows Up.

Tip #6 – Keep Your Torso Stationary.

Tip#7 – Inhale As You Pull Up and Exhale As Your Lower Downward.

Two Final Precautions:

Do Not Raise Your Torso As You Lift the Weights – Jerking your torso upward as you lift the dumbbells can cause injury to your back.

Do Not Bend and Lean Your Torso Below a Straight Line Parallel to the Floor – Bending and curving your body as you lower and raise the weights puts dangerous stress on your lower back.

How Many Sets and Reps To Do

A “rep” is short for repetitions for the individual movements of an exercise. A “set” is a completed group of reps. When you do 12 reps, you rest a minute. If you then do another 12 reps, you have thus done 2 sets of 12 reps. The secret for explosive muscle growth is to do a total of 4 sets. Allow me to explain. You do 12 reps for the 1st set. You do 10 reps for the 2nd set. You do 8 reps for the 3rd set. And lastly you do 6 reps for the 4th.

The Success Secret for Doing The Dumbbell Bent over Lateral Rear Raises for Maximum Muscular Growth

Start out with a light weight on your first set. Increase the weight by just a little more each set; increase it as little as 1/2 lbs. or as much as 2 lbs. for each successive set. When you get to the heaviest set which will be your 4th set, you may only be able to do as few as 6 repetitions; if this happens, you have done everything correctly. Continue to work your shoulders and all of your other muscle groups in this way, and you will surely see spectacular growth and success (fast and easy).
