Dumbbell front raise

Action essentials:

1. Double Feet shoulder-width apart, torso straight, head raised and chest raised. Hold dumbbells with both hands, elbows slightly bent and at a fixed angle.

2. When lifting forward, feel the front deltoid muscle lift the entire arm. At this time, the angle of the elbow is fixed and does not change. Just lift the dumbbell until the arm is parallel to the shoulder. When lowering, keep the angle of the elbow joint unchanged, feel the force on the anterior deltoid muscle of the shoulder, and return to the preparatory action.

Note:

1. Try to start as light as possible with the weight of the dumbbell (elastic bands are also acceptable) to avoid injury.

2. Do not shrug your shoulders when doing this action to avoid too little stimulation of the shoulder muscles.
