So you do lateral raises with plates and then press them after you hit parallel?

>>39755187
god why are asian oly lifters so fucking hot

>>39755240

Basically a "full wingspan" fly with the plates. Not a true press motion.

Likely depends on the plate style. I started light with 10s just to try and get the form down. I tried 25s and it was so fucking hard to maintain proper form much less hold on to. My gym, however, has the iron gym plates like pic related. More to grip.

Gonna give these a go next shoulder day, thanks op, yu a pretty cool guy

Make sure you start at a "closed" position like he does in the in the video I linked earlier. If you start open it doesn't feel right on the shoulders.

what difference would it make if I used dumbells instead for the same motion?

>>39756379
zero. they don't have dumbbells at OL competitions so they use plates instead

>>39755987
this picture really made me think

>>39755289

Almost certainly not.
That said, you could probably approach something close to his size naturally, but you'd struggle with the bodyfat

These would mainly hit the front delts right?


The whole point of the lateral raise is to hit the middle delt.
