Ape Commercial Standing Multi Flight Lateral Raise

The APE Commercial Standing Multi Flight Lateral Raise is a standing lateral raise machine that trains the shoulders from several angles on adjustable, lockable arms.

Key Features of the APE Multi Flight

What the arms give your shoulder day:

✅ Lockable arms hold your setup between sets
✅ One station trains front, side and rear delts
✅ Crossovers use the same arms for the chest

What can the multi-flight arms do?

The arms are adjustable and lockable for height and angle, as the manufacturer describes them, so one frame covers five movements. Each one shifts the main work to a different muscle:

Pair the station with a press to finish the shoulders. Our military press machine guide shows the overhead partner lift.

Machine lateral raise or dumbbells?

It depends on what you want from the set. A machine fixes the arc, so you can load the side delts without swinging, and tension stays on the muscle through the range. Dumbbells give a free path and need no floor space, but they feel lightest at the bottom of the lift.

Choose the machine when repeatable setups and steady loading matter on a busy floor. Choose dumbbells when floor space or a one-off setup decides. Many programs use both; our machines vs free weights comparison explains the trade.

How much room does the machine need?

Mark the spot before the freight is booked:

1. Tape the listed size on the floor and stand inside it.

Standing lateral raise machine FAQs

How do you use a standing lateral raise machine?

Set the arms to the height and angle for the movement and lock them. Stand tall and raise your arms to shoulder height with a soft bend in the elbows, then lower slowly. Keep your shoulders away from your ears.

Is standing lateral raise better than sitting?

Neither wins outright. Standing keeps your legs braced and allows bent-over and crossover variations, while a seated pad can fix your torso for stricter isolation.

Lateral raise machine or cable?

A cable column gives a free path and many angles from one stack. A standing machine fixes the path so every set starts from the same setup. Our functional trainer buying guide covers the cable route.

What is a standing lateral raise machine called?

Gyms also call it a standing multi-flight machine or a lateral raise and pec fly machine. This one carries "Multi Flight" in its name.

Are standing lateral raises good?

Yes. They isolate the side delts, which presses reach only indirectly. Use a light load and full control, since heavy swinging moves the work off the shoulder.
