Bony lipping over the lateral malleolus refers to the formation of osteophytes or bony growths around the lateral malleolus, which is the bony prominence on the outside of the ankle. This condition is often associated with osteoarthritis or chronic ankle instability, where the joint experiences wear and tear, leading to bone spurs. These growths can cause pain, restricted movement, and may be visible on X-rays. Treatment may involve physical therapy, pain management, or, in severe cases, surgical intervention.

How can I improve my form while performing bent over lateral raises to target my lateral deltoids effectively?

To improve your form during bent-over lateral raises for targeting your lateral deltoids effectively, focus on keeping your back straight, bending at the hips, and maintaining a slight bend in your elbows. Lift the weights out to the sides in a controlled manner, leading with your elbows and keeping your shoulders down and back. Avoid swinging or using momentum to lift the weights, and focus on the mind-muscle connection to engage your lateral deltoids throughout the movement.

There are actually two: the coracoid process a thick curved process attached by a broad base to the upper part of the neck of the scapula."Coracoid" in itself means "like a raven's beak. The coracoid process is palpable just below the lateral end of the clavicle. It is otherwise known as the "Surgeon's Lighthouse" because it serves as a landmark to avoid neurovascular damage.And the acromion (from Greek: akros, "highest", ōmos, "shoulder", plural: acromia) is a bony process on the scapula. Together with the coracoid process it extends laterally over the shoulder joint.
