John Thomas, also known as the BodybuildingVegan, dives into the nuances of perfecting side raises in his latest video. He starts with a compelling argument: the weight lifted doesn’t matter; it’s all about how pronounced your delts are. Through an engaging and down-to-earth approach, John meticulously guides viewers on setting up their body positioning for side raises, emphasizing the importance of starting light and focusing on the correct muscle activation. His vivid analogy of imagining an axe murderer chopping off your arm helps illustrate the need to use your elbow to lift the weight, ensuring that the delts are doing the work rather than relying on momentum or other muscles.
