Lying Lateral Raise

Lay your body across the side of a Swiss Ball, keeping both feet on the floor, whilst holding a suitable dumbbell in your upper arm, with your hand resting on your upper hip.

START
FINISH
position yourself in a good stability with your feet smoothly raise the weigt arm - just above your shoulder

Keeping this position fixed, smoothly lift the weight with a straight arm, to a position where the arm is vertical to the floor, hand inline with your shoulder.

You can have your palm facing downwards or forwards; however focus on keeping the lifting and lowering smooth and under control.

For a greater range of movement, and increase in difficulty, you may decide to commence the lift from a position whereby the weight is behind your lower buttock.
