Bent-Over Rear-Delt Raise

How to do it

1. Setup

   Brace the ribs over the pelvis and keep the shoulder centered before moving the arm.

2. Execution

   Lift in the shoulder blade plane with control, pause briefly and resist the lowering phase.

3. Avoid

   Avoid shrugging, swinging or forcing range beyond shoulder control.

4. Overload

   When you complete every prescribed set at the top of the rep range with clean form, increase the load by 2.5–5% next session.
