STANDING LATERAL RAISE / REAR DELT MACHINE
One station. Every delt angle
A purpose-built standing fly/lateral platform that lets members train side laterals, rear-delts, front raises and multi-angle chest flyes with clean lines of pull and constant cable tension. Designed for biomechanics first; built for commercial abuse.
- Delt-specific isolation – removes lower-back swing and dumbbell momentum, so the load stays on the delts through the whole arc.
- Multi-angle in one footprint – lateral, front and rear-delt patterns plus high-to-low / low-to-high flyes without changing stations.
- Symmetry you can see – iso-lateral arms allow unilateral work to fix left/right gaps.
- Safer on shoulders – neutral/“thumbs-up” grips and scapular-plane alignment reduce subacromial impingement risk.

Coaching notes |
|
Side Lateral Raise (standing) |
Middle (lateral) deltoid |
Supraspinatus, lower/serratus stabilizers |
Thumbs-up, elbows soft; raise in scapular plane to shoulder height. |
|
Unilateral Lateral Raise |
Middle deltoid (one side) |
Obliques, core anti-rotation |
Great for symmetry & shoulder rehab progressions. |
|
Rear-Delt Fly (reverse fly) |
Posterior deltoid |
Mid-trap, rhomboids, external rotators (infra/teres minor) |
Hinge a touch, keep elbows wide; think “wrap behind.” |
|
Front Raise |
Anterior deltoid |
Clavicular pec, upper trap (minimal) |
Set arms slightly inward; stop just below eye level. |
|
Mid-Chest Fly |
Pectoralis major (sternal+clavicular) |
Anterior delt, long-head triceps (stability) |
Arms sweep in an arc, soft bend at elbows. |
|
Low-to-High Fly |
Upper chest (clavicular) |
Anterior delt, serratus |
Handles start low, finish high and in. |
|
High-to-Low Fly |
Lower chest (sternocostal) |
Anterior delt, lats (stability) |
Start high, sweep down and in toward navel. |
