"Gravity doesn't f*ck'n point sideways." -best quote ever.
It’s INSANE how much you can learn from just a 6 min video from mike
Oh stop, thank you! - Dr. Mike
@@RenaissancePeriodization And I have a word document "Mikes tips for programming" . :D
Even crazier considering I played it at 2x the speed, same info, 3 minute video "5head"
You'd be floored by how much you learn from ONE video on my channel...
@@JayVincentFitness Yeah, somehow your methods has a 0% injury risk, wild how one could lose intelligence by watching ya video
I fucking love how Dr. Mike introduces various versions of the same movement emphasizing different patterns might work better for different people, unlike most weight training channels out there imposing their single "best" way to do the moves. That is real wisdom, thanks Mike!!
exactly bro , specially when you spend years training you learn that some common ways of performing some exercises are simply not suitable for your body , there are few people like dr mike wise enough to admit that there is more than one way to do things
💯🔥
"Here's how you've been working out wrong all this time!"
God I hate those videos. Don't patronise me. Give me Dr Mike with his perfectly shaped head and sage, grandmotherly advice.
my rotator cuffs beg for 5lbs but my ego just coldly looks at them and says “no”
What i like with Dr Mike’s vids is that he doesn’t say “do this” or “dont do that”. He always emphasizes each individual to find what their body can take and which variation suits them well. I think its great and practical coz all our bodies are built differently.
I came for work out tips but I found I found my life's purpose, side delts so huge that doors break when I walk through them. Thank you Dr. Mike!
This man right here explain things better than most of my professors at college. Simple but very clear it's so easy to understand.
Perfect timing. I was just reevaluating my form and method for lateral raises.
Yeah man, it's definitely something that can get away from you over time, and you have to reign it back in on occasion. - Dr. Mike
Seems like one of those "try every variation and see what works for you" things though.. so used to being told to keep a bend in the elbows, not to go too high, etc. Not sure if I have the patience to try them all but we'll see how it goes..
@@jason2014 how did it went?
This guy is such a pro. Unreal education in a succinct easy to understand format.
I was doing regular lateral raises with 16kg dumbells for quite some time. When I tried this variation, I was struggling to complete a 10 rep set with 10kg dumbells, it really max out the tension and it's harder to cheat. I've felt a pump on my shoulders that I haven't felt for a long time, just by doing those simple changes.
Keeping my elbows straight and pausing at the top really changed my lateral raises. I had to drop weights because the sensation is just brutal but the pump is just beautiful. Thank you Dr. Mike!!!!
Doing 10 + reps slow and controlled this way youll never need to do more than 6 or 8 kg
@@danielmillward9947Legit. Its a bit hard to see the tiny 13 yr olds next to me swinging about the 12.5kgs, but i know deep down im doing it properly 😂.
Just started training again and this channel is answering so many questions that I have and motivates me to play around with different variations.
Dr. Mike put me through this exercise about eight months ago. I've done it exactly like this ever since and have seen excellent development in my medial delts as a natural lifter. Highly recommend taking this advice.
Thanks man! I hope you're enjoying your bigger delts! - Dr. Mike
*lateral delts
@@imbaguitar ah right, thank you
@@RenaissancePeriodization well, unfortunately, I am so wide I no longer fit in my Lamborghini Veneno and must now settle for an Aventador. So thanks I guess.
Who is this dr. Mike and how can I contact him? Does he give investment advice as well? (bot joke)
FINALLY! An intensive and unbiased video on the lateral raise exercise as a whole, there is so much crap being spread about this lately as if one size fits all
Clear, impartial, applicable content. Thanks Dr Mike!
I’m 36, and have been lifting for almost 20 years, very consistently. Never did super ROM until I saw Mike do them in another video. Fantastic shoulder stimulus and much better results than ever before.
what is super ROM ?
@@yassenredwan8297 super Range Of Motion. in this case, raising the arms all the way up. he explains here: 2:49
Basically a Lu raise, just with dumbbells instead of plates
@@greenhat7618except the Lu raises usually uses plates and is performed with your Palms facing forwards
Dr. Mike always keeps it simple but useful. Thank you Doc!
THIS IS THE BEST SERIES ON RP!!! THANK U SO MUCH DR MIKE!!! U R MY HERO!!!
I love how he mentioned that it's okay to lock out the elbows for this movement. Every other video that I've seen on this topic always says to have a slight bend in the elbows, but I've always had a better mind/muscle connection by keeping everything locked tight.
Doc!!! Loving the fact that you’re doing exercise videos now. TH-cam needed you!!
Ever since finding this channel, I feel like my workouts have become so much more productive. Just small things like controlling the eccentric, big stretch at the bottom, etc. have improved the quality of my time in the gym and produced great results. Fantastic dumbbell/home workout videos. And a beautiful man to gaze upon.
I've been using muscle isolation last few years and it's been a game changer in results. I only use dumbbells to isolate contraction in every muscle group. This I've found increases muscle/mind connection in every muscle group. I still use bars but most have been dumbbells with extreme focus on feeling fibers working and contraction. You should do a video on this. My muscurlarity has been through the roof. I use one dumbbells for the targeted muscle only and focus on the squeeze flexing as hard as I can every rep. I'm an advanced lifter over 30yrs of training tho.
one of the best videos on shoulders ever.. 10/10
Wonderful video focused on one muscle and one type of exercise for it. Thank you, Dr. Mike and RP.
I like that you covered all of it. I thought you'd leave out the hand position rotation, but you didn't. Great advice!
Thank you Dr. Mike! Incredible amount of knowledge in a short 6 min video
Best video on Lateral Raises I've ever seen. Thanks.
This was very clean, clear, and to the point. I also love how you explain things. Subscribed.
A variation i do love is the unilateral with the hand taking a supinated grip. Insane mind muscle connection
Dr. Mike always with the simple tips that work!
New fan here and I am an experienced bodybuilder. I love your technical deep dives with a hint of humour. Thanks doc! 💪
This was an awesome explanation. Thanks doc.. just recently subscribed. Love the no nonsense videos. Straight to the point. No bs. 💪
Thanks for the helpful tips, Mike! Allow me to share a variation from my side. Part of my technique is: instead of just holding 1 second in the top position, I make a little extra 'jump' with the arms (lower a couple of centimeters and raise the same amount again to top position) and then lower my arms in a controlled way. I can really feel the strain in the muscles by doing it that way.
Nice. I’ve literally just watched two other guys videos on lateral raises. They contradicted each other, as well as saying absolutely don’t do this and absolutely you must do that. Your advice on finding what works best for the individual as well as changing it up occasionally seems much better.
Great timing! I was just looking for different methods to build rounded delts better, and got this! Thanks
It's ridiculous how much the feeling changes when I've started using the full/super ROM. Combined with not going down all the Way and holding /pulsing at the last reps. Really amazing tips, thank you for that
Love the suggestions, overall layout of the video, and how you go over the form.
i saw a short part of this video on your tik tok yesterday and it caught my attention instantly , i tried them right after watching and will definetly do my laterals this way from now on
My favourite exercise by far! Great video Dr M!
Excellent video with great advice presented in a brief and concise manner! Thanks Dr. Mike...
I've struggled with laterals for a while, but watching this at the gym today made me feel my side delts burn like never before. Much apreciated doc 🥳
Thanks for the advice Dr. Mike! I totally took lateral raises out of my program because they were popping like bubble wrap when I'd go above parallel. It's good to know that I can still get a good stimulus within a comfortable range of motion.
So stoked and grateful for this info! I immediately got slightly more jacked and slightly more tan just from the intro & 4k video, despite my monitor being 1080p.
Thanks, Dr. Mike. I'm pretty new to lifting and definitely feel like the delts were lagging. The variations are really helpful. Those pauses are a lot more fucking brutal than I expected. That one is absolutely in the mix now. Appreciate the content.
I would love to see one of these breakdowns on cable pec flys, the multitude of variations on how to do the exercise and target different parts of the muscle. Thanks for the top shelf content!
Thank god for you, Mike. I've needed to hone this in more
This tips are like reading my mind. This is what I do for years.
It's been INSANE how much your can learn from anyone at the knowledge peak of their pursuit for all of human experience
Just what I needed to get over the hump on mind/muscle connection with delts. Thanks for another great video
I've seen improvements in my gains since following your channel about 4 to 6 months ago
Been waiting for this one, one of the best damn channels on TH-cam
Thank you RP!
These videos are amazing. Thank you Dr. Mike.
This is the best training tips I have seen in a long time.
454am from Latam tuning in religiously with RP and H.Eminence Doctor Mike ❤️🙏🥂⭐🇮🇱🇺🇸
Such a concise and well organized video. Thank you!!!
Purchased a few of your programs…great layouts and I have really enjoyed them. Thanks for all of the beneficial tips on training. Keep up the great content. Thanks
Very cool! Glad to hear it! - Dr. Mike
Wow Flea gotten huge! Not only a great musician but a great fitness coach. Thank you for the tips.
awesome video, so much info and clearly explained and shown. Dr Mike , you seem like a really cool guy, thanks for all the valuable lifting lessons!!!
Top tier instruction with great humour, love it.
Really appreciate your videos! So much valuable information, thanks so much.
Man you describe this really well and l been working on different tweaks the last year on lateral raises and you just went through every single tweak, from elbows , range , holds , fingers and hand placement, fantastic job. Also l have been doing start position from sides of my legs little elbow bend , pinky a little more dominant, also l have been fully locking glutes and hips forward l keep my feet touching side by side and keeping all my weight in my heels , locked knees all times like a concrete pillar at the same time relaxing upper body keeping chin down also this technique is always slight adjustments whilst I’m doing reps so l really must stay focused sometimes l find l might start lifting my chin or unlocking my left quad or my breathing might drop off, finally l use a weight that’s not too heavy so l do more reps and my range might start from bottom to top then l might start doing a really short range which you mentioned from top to 45 and back pumping it out then go back to full range and like you you perfectly described it will eventually catch up with you , thanks and l love zoning in and doing lateral raises ❤
Thank you for these videos! I appreciate them lots!
“…because gravity doesn’t patient sideways.” Just a brilliant way to phrase the idea in understandable terms. Great teaching.
Fantastic advice, I found it hard to work out the posture for side lateral raise and never thought to take the weight down slowly.
Hi Dr Mike, I'm Jon from Cambridge, Ma,, your channel is awesome,, I' look forward to implementing more of your principles and guidance in my training, thanks for all that you do!!
See how Mike goes higher than parellel ! I’ve always thought we never go higher ! Woudjnt higher be better more muscle lengthening ! The only person who demonstrated this and it made more sence
1000% fixed my mind muscle connection for side delts much appreciated dr.mike 🤙🙏
Thanks for the tips. Started incorporating them in my lat raises and definitely feel more of a burn.
Great content!!! Best breakdown iv seen. Most commonly done wrong movement in the gym
Best Advice Ever, for Side Delts. Put into action today, and was on 🔥 1/2 way through my second set. Reps 30, 25, 20 using ONLY 10 lb dumbbells with 1 minute rest between sets. Thanks Dr. Mike!
Dr. Mike your the best. I love these series, would you do a video on rear delts? Especially with the type of equipment most home gym users would have (light DB's and barbell).
Decided to replace my overhead presses with these for awhile. Thanks 🎉
So thankful my buddy put me on to Mike this early on for me. (6 months into lifting)
I really dig this video, thanks a lot! Cant wait to get back into my PUSH day this thursday and try this. I've been having trouble with my shoulders since day 1 (been a year of training now) and my delts have grown a bit but not enough compared to the rest of the body
Masterclass in lr in 6 min, well done!
Thank you for making videos that pertain to exercising with weights. The other videos about “drama” are less important. But yeah I get it videos on drama pertaining to other fitness influencers probably get more views.
Old guy here with shoulder issues - avoid pinkies up as it places shoulders in internal rotation, and don't go out completely to side. Bring your arms tin slightly to about 45 degrees. No more pain!
Yes! Totally agree!
Pinkies high for impingement of supraspinatus. ‼️
Love your videos Dr Mike! Thanks so much for sharing 🙏
We need more of these please . Thank you
Hi Mike, I'm a 58 yo male and have finally been able to feel a pump and burn in my medial/front delts using the advice you provided here and in the video with Jeff Nippard. The amount of weight I had to use is a little embarrassing, but, as I type this, I can still feel the 'pump'! Eureka!!
Thanks for taking the time to share such helpful guidance.
Thank you. Been watching the tiktoks and reels for a while and learning. This video has been hugely helpful. Have good delta lateral raise but hitting plateau. Some of these variants are great.
Looking ripped Dr! Thanks for another great video. Love the custom training template I got from you guys. Makes sure I'm not being lazy and actually tracking progress
Awesome, I'm super glad you like it! - Dr. Mike
How did you get a custom template?
@@ams914 bought from website but at this point the app looks better
@@ams914I'm guessing he's got links set up in the descriptions of his videos, if not then he's not doing the marketing aspect well!
Great vid as always Mike
Good stuff. For me I've found that the slight elbow bend works way better. Full lockout feels awkward and mostly hits my traps.
These are the vids we need!
Much needs in my life! Thx u Dr Mike
Thanks for clarifying that pinkies up works well too that's how my shoulders respoond. Great videos.
Y’all NEED to try the super ROM/ Lu raises. Amazing pump and I feel it working my rotator cuff and small shoulder musculature. One of my favorite PT movements that I started for shoulder rehab but just kept overloading and they’re a staple now.
Doc Mike is the goat.
Hey! Yesterday I injured my left wrist doing Barbell Upright Rows. A video on this exercise would be great. Keep up the great videos!
Give this a look: th-cam.com/video/EK_r5_mIjLY/w-d-xo.html - Dr. Mike
I've been using a hook grip on the dumbells recently for side laterals and, for whatever reason, it feels much better!
even i could check with hook grips, the delts do get pumped even with light weight
I appreciate you driving home the mind muscle connection. I would have liked to see you perform these from a side view to see the path of your arms.
Great. I have a sketchy shoulder and haven't been doing these. Now I feel like I have a plan.
Short. Simple. Too the point. “Proper” form for one, may be different for each individual. Find what works for you is the main message I got from this.
Awesome vid as usual...on of the few most legit on youtube. Can you make a vid on gaining or improving symmetry? I'd like to hear your advice on the subject.
Thanks Dr. Mike, your contents are very much informative and helps me in my training.I would like to know more on calves' movements.Its my pain area.
appreciate if you could do some video around those.
Cheers!!
Great video with lots of variations!!!
You deserve to be famous Dr Mike
love these vids Dr. Mike!
Awesome video !! Also Dr Mike looking like Dr Vascular in the intro 🔥
