Front raise: how to do it with good form

The front raise isolates the front shoulders — light weights are usually enough.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Stand with a dumbbell in each hand in front of your thighs.

  2. 2

    Raise the dumbbells forward with nearly straight arms to shoulder height.

  3. 3

    Pause briefly.

  4. 4

    Lower slowly.

Common mistakes

  • Swinging the body.
  • Lifting higher than shoulder height.
  • Weights that are too heavy.
