Dumbbell Front Raise
Written By David Song
DUMBBELL FRONT RAISE
This is a strengthening exercise for the shoulder flexors. This may be completed standing or sitting. Hold a dumbbell in each hand. You may complete this exercise unilaterally (one hand at a time) or bilaterally (both hands at the same time). Raise your hand up directly in front of you while keeping a soft bend in the elbows. Raise the arm to roughly shoulder height and lower the weight back to the ground. Be sure to minimize momentum used through swaying the body.
