Can I supplement my planche training with lateral dumbbell raises?

Charlie Martin posted a topic in Strength

Hi there, I've started to plateau a bit with my planche training and from what I've researched, apparently it's good to change up your workout every so often...??? Anyways, a few planche tutorials on you tube feature guys doing front lateral raises with dumbbells. As someone who has rarely used weights of any kind and has seen excellent results with bodyweight training alone, I am a bit reluctant to supplement my training with weights, however, if this 'change up' can get me out of this plateau, I'm up for anything. I was wondering if you guys had any recommendations/experience? If using dumbbells is beneficial, would side lateral raises help also? And should I lock out my elbow when doing them so as to mimic the planche (good form with straight arms)? Any help would be appreciated - thanks in advance!
