Front Incline Dumbbell Raise

How to do the Front Incline Dumbbell Raise

1. 1

   Sit down on an incline bench with the incline set anywhere between 30 to 60 degrees while holding a dumbbell on each hand. Tip: You can change the angle to hit the muscle a little differently each time.

2. 2

   Extend your arms straight in front of you and have your palms facing down with the dumbbells raised about 1 inch above your thighs. This will be your starting position.

3. 3

   Slowly raise the dumbbells straight up until they are slightly above your shoulders, while keeping your elbows locked. Squeeze at the top for a second and make sure you breathe out during this portion of the movement. Tip: Keep your head resting down against the bench and your legs on the floor at all times.

4. 4

   Lower the arms back to the starting position as you inhale.

5. 5

   Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
