What muscles does Cable Lateral Raise work?

Cable Lateral Raise trains Shoulders as primary movers (counted as 1.0 hard set per set) and Traps as secondary synergists (counted as 0.5 hard set per set).

What is Cable Lateral Raise called in French, Strong, and Hevy exports?

In French gym logs and Strong/Hevy CSV exports, Cable Lateral Raise also resolves cleanly from Elevations latérales poulie.
