Lateral Raises

Hold dumbells with arms at your side and forearms parallel to the ground and each other. Lift arms outward until elbows are at the same height as shoulders while keeping forearms in the same orientation. This is a definition exercise and lighter weights and more reps should be the goal. 10 lb dumbells are a good starting weight. There are also nautilis machines that isolate this exercise.
