Band Front Lateral Raise
One arm raises against a band stood on, on a line between a front and a side raise, to shoulder height.
How to do it
Setup
Stand on the band, the end in one hand at the thigh, the free arm down.
Steps
- Raise the straight arm forward and slightly out to shoulder height.
- Pause against the band at the top.
- Lower slowly; switch arms after the set.
Common mistakes
Drifting into a pure side raise: the arm travels on the diagonal. Shrugging against the band: blade down, then raise. Letting the band snap the arm down: lower against it.
Breathing
Exhale raising, inhale lowering.
