The Dumbbell One-Arm Lateral Raise (Prone) is a variation of the lateral raise that targets the lateral or middle deltoid muscle while minimizing the involvement of other muscles. Performing this exercise prone (face down) helps to isolate the lateral deltoids more effectively. Here’s how to do it correctly: Setup: Set up an incline bench. Adjust an incline bench to about a 30-45 degree angle. Position yourself on the bench: Lie face down on the bench with your chest and stomach supported. Your feet should be flat on the floor and your head in a neutral position, looking down. Hold a dumbbell in one hand. Let your arm hang straight down from your shoulder with the dumbbell in a neutral grip (palm facing inwards). Execution: Begin the movement by raising your arm out to the side until it is at shoulder height. Keep a slight bend in your elbow to reduce stress on your joints. Your palm should face the floor as you lift the weight. Control the movement: Lift the weight in a controlled manner, avoiding momentum or swinging. Focus on using your lateral deltoid muscle to lift the weight. Pause briefly at the top: Once your arm reaches shoulder height, pause for a brief moment. Ensure your shoulder remains level and your body stays stable on the bench. Lower the dumbbell slowly: Lower the weight back to the starting position in a controlled manner. Maintain the slight bend in your elbow and avoid letting the dumbbell drop quickly.

Trap Bar Jump Squat

Trap bar jump squats are a dynamic lower-body exercise that combines the benefits of the squat and explosive power from jumping. Here's how you can perform trap bar jump squats: Place a trap bar on the ground and load it with an appropriate amount of weight. Start with lighter weight until you get comfortable with the movement. Stand inside the trap bar with your feet shoulder-width apart. Position your toes slightly pointed outwards. Grab the handles of the trap bar with an overhand grip (palms facing towards you) or a neutral grip (palms facing each other). Ensure your grip is secure. Start by lowering your body into a squat position, bending your knees and hips while keeping your chest up and back straight. Keep your weight on your heels and ensure your knees do not extend past your toes. Once you reach the bottom of the squat position, explode upward by driving through your heels, extending your hips, knees, and ankles simultaneously. As you jump, use the momentum to lift the trap bar off the ground, extending your body fully. Keep your core engaged and maintain a straight back throughout the movement. Land softly back into the squat position, absorbing the impact with your muscles. Immediately go into the next repetition, maintaining a continuous and fluid motion. Inhale as you lower your body into the squat position. Exhale forcefully as you explode upward during the jump.
