    You're not supposed to go to 90° degrees. Also go lighter on the weight on them

        Thats too much. Do them in the scapular plane, which is around 150 degrees IIRC.

      So I should focus more on reps than putting more weight?

        1x20 then 3x failure and you'll get pumped. Do them real slow.

        Yes. Do whatever weight allows you to get a full range of motion. To grow your side delts you want to do at least 6 sets of at least 12 reps per week.

        Work your way up to 3x20 and then make the weight jump.

    I see some jacked gym bros who sit or lie down on their stomachs to do these and I’m going to try it next time I go gym. Is there any benefit to this? At least seated seems like you could do more weight. Anyone found that?

      while seated you won't be able to cheat by leaning back and turning it into a front delt exercise

        Keep your thumbs on the same side of the handle as the other fingers (like suicide grip) and keep the angle so that the thumb is higher than the other fingers, so basically opposite of op pic. Otherwise it's more or less fine. What the other guy said is probably fine if you're keen on hitting the rear.

    Damn. I thought I was doing these with light weight but reading this thread it makes sense. I've been going to the gym for 3 weeks and usually I superset these for 3x12-15 with tricep pushdown and overhead tricep extension. Can't really do it with more than 6kg.

    is it useful or does it produce the same effect if I do this exercise with one arm at a time?

    you can do seated version if you don't want to cheat so hard, just make sure do lower the weight before you sit on the bench cuz this one is harder

    one of the worst shoulder fricker upper exercises. if you do them look up some good shoulder mobility, internal vs external rotation, and rotator cuff videos on youtube.
