5 Amazing Shoulder Exercises to Strengthen Your Deltoid Muscles

#4 Dumbbell Front Raise

The shoulder front raise is a dumbbell exercise which uses weights to strengthen the anterior deltoid or the front shoulder.

Instructions:

Step 1: Stand with your feet hip-width apart. Hold the weights in each hand in front of your thighs with the palms facing towards you.

Step 2: Now lift the dumbbells to shoulder height and return back down with the same control.

Tip: Avoid swinging the arms and don’t lower the weights too quickly. Maintain a slight bend of the elbows during the course of the exercise. Do three sets of seven reps each. (Note: Pause for 1-2 seconds when the dumbbells reach shoulder height).
