Front Dumbbell Raise
A shoulder exercise targeting the front deltoids, helping in building shoulder strength and endurance.
Instructions
- Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand.
- Keep your arms straight (with a slight bend in the elbows).
- Raise the dumbbells in front of you until your arms are parallel to the ground.
- Pause briefly at the top of the movement.
- Lower the weights back to the starting position with control.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Swinging the weights using momentum instead of lifting them with muscle control.
- Raising the weights too high causing unnecessary strain on the shoulder joints.
- Leaning back excessively, which can strain the lower back.
