Alternate Dumbbell Front Raises

Alternate Dumbbell Front Raises

Preparation
Grasp dumbbells in both hands with palms facing down. Lean slightly forward to maximize front delt involvement. Start with the dumbbells at your sides or behind to increase the range of motion.

Execution
Raise one dumbbell with elbows locked to eye level. Lower the dumbbell slowly to starting position. Once back to the start continue with alternate arm.

Comments
Don’t rest the dumbbells on the front of the thighs. Bringing the dumbbells slightly past parallel helps involve the traps. This is an isolation exercise so do not use too heavy a weight that you have to use momentum to get it up. Feel the anterior deltoids do the work.
