- In this video, we discuss the truth about full range of motion (ROM) when performing lateral raises, also known as side raises, for the shoulders. We explore the different variations of side raises and provide insights on how to optimize the exercise to target the deltoids effectively.

Just discovered this guy, … knowledgeable, easy to understand, to the point. I subscribed.
Thank you! I appreciate it.
I just wanted to say thank for all the years of hard work and videos you have made. I honestly think your page is one of the most underrated on UA-cam. Straight to the point with great explanations and logic behind it. You really deserve that 1M subscribers compared to a lot of other workout UA-cam channels. KEEP PROVIDING US WITH THIS GOLD! 🙂
I really appreciate it! Thank you 🙏
@JamesGrage I know this is a specific request but if you know any workouts for a post meniscus partial removal surgery, I would to see a video on that. I'm past the recovery timeline but I still suffer from knee lockout and slight pain behind the knee. If you have any videos on that or can make one, I would really appreciate it!
I miss squatting but feel discouraged to do it knowing it seems to worsen the lockouts
Awesome video. I see other fitness influencers and trainers that preach full range of joint motion for this exercise. You are the only one I have seen to totally break down what is happening in such a clear way.
I appreciate it. Yeah, one of the more interesting things about having been around for a long time (training for 30+ years) is watching topics trend and then fall off, only to repeat again. This debate about partial range of motion vs full has been going round and round forever but it seems like the past few years I'm hearing it a lot more.
Excellent video.And always great information.Nice one.thanks James.
🙏
Great video. Shoulders are a big issue for me, not so much growing them, but from injuries. When I started weight training I did a lot of overhead presses, and that took a toll on my shoulders, to the point I don’t do them anymore. However, your videos, especially the videos you did with Dr Baron really helped me, and my shoulders feel pretty good now. I would love to hear/ see a video from you that focuses on rear delts, and how to hit them. I usually do reverse flys with bands, or bent over lateral raises with dumbbells, but I’m not sure that is optimal. Thanks for all the great info bortha!
Appreciate it my friend. I'll definitely cover rear delts. That's a tricky one for a lot of people because it requires more focused/disciplined technique.
Keep an eye out in the next day or two for a YT short on this topic.
Love these vids man, keep it up
Thanks for the impeccable presentation. Again.
🙏
To be honest, when it comes to shoulders, I just go by feel. My shoulders will tell me whether it's right or not for me. Believe me when you get to 70 years of age, you've got a pretty good idea
That's honestly a great approach. What works for one person may not work for another. Best thing is to learn our own body
Really like the fact you are going into detail about every little thing on exercises. Watched your videos back in the day when you did the body fat transformation. Like your videos with your son. I am 47 now and take my 14 year old son to the gym with me about 4 -5 days a week. He has done dumbbells and bands at home for the past year and I feel he is pretty advanced as far as technique and understanding of mind muscle connection for his age.He is obsessed with lifting and seeing his body transform. He is finishing up his basketball season but Baseball season is coming up in about 6 weeks and he wants to do what he can to get stronger for the season. He does his AG-1 and protein drinks after gym and I have him drink EAA’s before and during gym. Was wondering if you think Creatine would be ok for him to take at his age? Wondering if you are going to do a video on some safe supps/vitamins you would recommend for teens. Love the videos/shorts keep them coming.💪🏻
Thanks my friend! Yes, I’m actually a big advocate of creatine. I think of it less as a “supplement” and more as a “nutrient”. I think everyone from the young to the elderly can probably benefit from creatine. The newest research even shows there may be brain health benefits as well. In the next few weeks I’ll start doing more nutrition and supplement content
@@JamesGrageappreciate it very much. Thank you
We have missed the skeleton guy! Great video as usual king!
🙏 yeah it’s been a long time
Good video dude. PS your gym is cool af.
Thank you dude. I appreciate it. Yeah I still go to the gym a few days a week but it's nice being able to train at home and still keep that gym vibe
The video a lot I like kind of videos educational full of knowledge Island lights and explained don't movement full range of motion on Bones I hope we get more can you make a video on nutrition❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
following you for your great Rb workouts.Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 brother ❤
👊🙏

, Great video 👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Good info and Bones makes an appearance. 💀
😆 Yep, had to dust him off. He was pretty neglected the last 5 years
I stopped using the shoulder press 10 lbs im female because it was painful for days on end afterwards however, when the pain stop I use my 10 lb hand weight, with elbow already bent and raised a couple inches and come back down to that same 90° location and I don't have any pain during or afterwards. Why is that? Is it simply my starting position And if so am I isolating as opposed to doing the whole joint?
There's so many different things that can cause that discomfort. First I would try going even lighter. To put it in perspective, I used to use 35+ lb dumbbells but I always had issues, so I started going much lighter but focusing on very controlled reps. A good squeeze at the top and controlled eccentrics (negatives). These slower reps mean more time that the muscle is under tension, which means it's working harder. This allows you to make a lighter weight "feel heavier". At the end of the day, it's not about how much weight you lift, it's about how hard you make the muscle work.
Since the front delt connects to the clavicle, the side delt connects to the acromion, and only the rear delt connects to the scapula; wouldn't at least the front and side delts still shorten as the scapula rotates outward? Although the trap is taking over some of the load at that point, the front and rear delts are still being activated, correct?
All three heads of the deltoid are going to activated to some degree. The key for isolation exercises is knowing what muscle you would like to "target" and then using good focus (aka mind/muscle connection) to try and make that muscle work harder. Naturally our body wants to recruit as many muscles as possible for any movement, but in "bodybuilding" style isolation exercises the goal is trying to over-ride that to a degree. In this case, it's trying to make the middle delt work harder, and not letting the bigger/stronger trapezius take over.
I see your point and that definitely makes sense. I have wide shoulders and long arms, so developing my delts and arms has always been a challenge. I really appreciate all of your excellent content. You definitely provide a prospective that the other experts do not. Thank you!!
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE RESISTANCE BANDS?
Hey my friend. I still incorporate them in all my workouts. I'll never not use bands. They're just so versatile (and effective).
@@JamesGrage they sure are. And yours are perfect the way the handles attach to the band and added capability to shorten at times. Aced it
Did you delete train like Zane? Damn it!
