rzen 7c241ec44c Ship the 47-exercise library in-app: export, fixtures, tests, docs
render.py --export bundles the 25 new motion rigs and info pages;
figure-fixtures.json regenerated for all 47 (the Swift solver reproduces
every new motion, including negative-y pins and the new prop uses). The
fixture count assertion moves to 47, and the no-bundled-motion test now
uses Treadmill - a permanent COVERAGE.md exclusion - since Bench Press
exists. 48 tests green; watch target builds. Coverage handoff complete -
TODO-coverage.md retired.

# Lateral Raise
The side-delt isolation — raise light dumbbells out to the sides until
the arms are level with the shoulders.
- **Category:** Main circuit
- **Type:** Free-weight lateral raise (dumbbells)
- **Targets:** Side delts
- **Prescription:** 3 × 1215, light
## Setup
Stand tall with light dumbbells at your sides, a slight fixed bend in
the elbows, shoulders relaxed down.
## Execution
1. Raise both arms out to the sides, leading with the elbows.
2. Stop at shoulder height — arms level, pinkies no higher than thumbs.
3. Lower slowly back to the sides.
## Cues
- Pour-the-jug: elbows stay just above the hands.
- Shoulders stay down away from the ears — no shrugging.
- The weights float up; the trunk never sways.
## Common Mistakes
- Going too heavy and swinging the weights up.
- Shrugging the traps into the raise.
- Raising past shoulder height.
## Progression
More reps before more weight; slow negatives and pauses at the top beat
bigger dumbbells here.
