Elastic resistance is a fantastic way to overload the top range of a lateral raise, placing more emphasis on the medial deltoid—an area often neglected in conventional pressing movements.

One way to increase resistance is by widening your stance on the tube. But once a single tube no longer challenges you enough, it’s time to double up.

In the video, I demonstrate how to perform lateral raises using two resistance tubes. This setup provides greater tension at the peak contraction point and helps build stronger, more defined shoulders. Give it a shot and feel the difference.
