Barbell Front Raise
Both hands on a bar, raised to shoulder height with straight arms; no leaning back.
How to do it
Setup
Bar at the thighs, overhand grip shoulder-width, stand tall.
Steps
- Raise the straight arms to shoulder height.
- Hold a beat.
- Lower with control to the thighs.
Common mistakes
Rocking the hips to start: dead stop at the thighs. Bar rising past shoulders: level is the target. Wrists dropping: knuckles forward, straight line.
Breathing
Exhale on the raise, inhale lowering.
