How "heavy" is "heavy" for lateral raises?

[QuakerOats]

I do one arm at a time too. But there's gonna be plenty of swinging and momentum involved with weights like that, you (nor me) can't pause 75lbs at the top. I've gone to about 100lbs on one arm laterals. Traps are sore as hell next day. 

So "heavy" depends on execution.

brutal swinging.

[Van_Bilderass]

brutal swinging.

Absolutely  Lots of tension placed on the delts though.

Yeah, when I do the 75s, it isn't super strict with a pause at the top, but the effort in the positive phase and resisting it on the negative phase does help a fair bit. That's why I drop the weights, so I can do the first and the second drop set with text book form. That's how I've always done it and it hasn't hurt my looks or myself any.

i think Mike Francois used to do them that way.

We're still talking about men training with weights right?

[Van_Bilderass]

 

isn't one arms taking twice the time? Not very efficient Hedge... then again you know more about training than me.

That's not my name brolio.

Anyday JT, I'll be glad to show your around and hang out.

I think I saw a pic where he also leaned away from a post. I hold on to an upright bench.

[thewickedtruth]

 

Thanks wicked... not convinced that's how I built them however... I think the military press might have more to do...  

I also do 185 regularily on the up right row... hurts my wrist but the way I do it, I get an crazy pump both front and side delts...

yeah man..i've been doing power cleans and push presses and it seems to be putting on some thickness..but nothing like yours.

[no one]

well fair enough.

if no one would like to post a recent pic to show us what his physique really looks like perhaps that would help iron this all out.

the fact he hasn't speaks volumes

lets see just how much you look like the sage you claim to be, shall we, tubbo?

ahahahaha...

run away, fatboy.

i dunno how you could call alex 'fat' looking the way you do- or anyone for that matter. 

not only does alex carry very good size and has good genetics for thickness, he far surpasses that gelatinous disaster of an image you see every time you waddle past a mirror.

[HTexan]

[Alex23]

Has someone posted a pic of your mom?

[WhiteCastle]

I typically use the 10's, and if I want to get really hardcore, I'll go 15's.

[WillGrant]

Thanks no one... I'm going to try that...

I usually lean forward slightly but allways keep the "pinky" up ...  even at 60, the side head feels like it's getting a pretty good load...

Yes you need to lean forward through the whole motion..
You should be able to see the medial head contract at the top of the movement and be higher than the anterior delt.
If you cant see the medial head at the top then its to heavy .

[WillGrant]

hahaha 

[Permabulker]

I usually warm up with 35-40's and walk my way up to 65-75 for 6-8 reps.   

I rarelly see anyone go over 40... Tapoutters in the 20's... 

All big delts, big cock and alpha attitude

All the way big dude....
