“I’ve never had small arms my whole life. And

“I’ve never had small arms my whole life. And for some reason, my generation celebrated the whole skinny-arm-sorority-girl-hand-on-hip-thing.
It took me until my 30’s to literally just not care, to love my body, and to celebrate my arms gaining definition and getting stronger. I joined in 2021 to gain muscle, and we’re doing it.
@paragontrainingmethods was a fresh breath of air because y’all were always preaching:
“Eat more”
“You need to do less”
“You need to take rest days”
“Look how strong you are”
“Look at what you’re building”
When everywhere else it’s:
“Push harder”
“No excuses”
“Make it happen”
“Summer shred weight loss challenge”
Thanks for showing up and fighting for people like me 💚

Lateral Raise variations are a critical piece of a

Lateral Raise variations are a critical piece of any shoulder (“delt”) training program!
(which is why you see them regularly on upper body days in our @paragontrainingmethods workout programs) 💪🏼
The primary function of the Side Delts is abduction, aka to move the arms away from the body. Therefore, movements like Overhead Press have very little stimulus to that specific portion of the shoulder.
A DB Lateral Raise will be hardest at the top (as the arms get further away from the body). You can also do them single arm, leaning, or with cables.
More recently, the Behind-The-Back Cable Lateral Raise has seen an increase in popularity. A few reasons for this:
1. The cable provides a more EVEN resistance curve (where it is NOT necessarily so hard at the top)
2. The cable allows you to ADJUST the resistance curve (being able to control what portion of the ROM is hardest).
By raising the cable to “wrist height” it will make it harder at the bottom, while using a lower set cable (by the feet) will make it harder towards the top.
Regardless of your preferred tool (DB or Cable ), one helpful cue is to think about PUSHING your arms OUT to the side, instead of thinking about lifting up the weight.
You also want to lift in what’s called the “scapular plane.” This is approx 30 degrees forward of out to the sides.
Make sure you don’t pick a weight that’s too heavy and you end up muscle it, swinging it, or needing momentum. Typically we want as strict as possible (unless programmed otherwise).
Try this:
Tough set of 15-20 reps
Then 5 more sets, rest only 10-15 sec
(goal = 4-6 reps)
