The front cable raise is an excellent isolation exercise for activating the muscles in the shoulder region. Moreover, it targets the trapezius muscles found in the upper back region.
Instructions:
Step 1: Set an appropriate weight and grab the handle attachment with both hands using a pronated grip. The attachment should be below the waist during the initial position of the exercise.
Step 2: Slowly raise the attachment until it is just above the shoulders. Ensure that the arms are fully extended while performing this motion.

Step 3: Hold the position for a second and return to the initial position.
Important tip: You could perform this exercise with a single arm for variable resistance.
