Cable One-Arm Front Raise
The one-arm cable front raise side-on to the low pulley instead of back to it; the near hand holds the handle.
How to do it
Setup
Side-on to the low pulley, handle in the near hand at the thigh.
Steps
- Raise the straight arm forward to shoulder height.
- Keep the hand tracking straight ahead, not toward the stack.
- Lower slowly with the cable still loaded.
Common mistakes
Hand drifting toward the stack: the arc runs straight ahead of the shoulder. Leaning away from the pull: stand tall, a lighter stack. Swinging off the thigh: dead stop at the bottom.
Breathing
Exhale on the raise, inhale lowering.
