A unilateral isolation shoulder exercise performed while lying on your side using a low cable pulley and single handle. The movement involves raising the arm upward and slightly across the body by abducting the shoulder while maintaining a slight bend in the elbow and keeping the torso stable. The lying position removes momentum and increases strict isolation of the shoulder muscles. The exercise emphasizes controlled lifting and a slow lowering phase to maintain constant tension through the lateral deltoid across the full range of motion.
