EZ-Bar Incline Front Raise
Back on an incline bench, an EZ-bar raised from a hang to straight up; the angled grip spares the wrists.
How to do it
Setup
Back on an incline bench, EZ-bar hanging at arm's length, hands on the angled grips.
Steps
- Raise the bar with straight arms until it is over the face.
- Keep the shoulders and head pressed to the pad.
- Lower slowly to the hang, with no bounce at the bottom.
Common mistakes
Bouncing the bar out of the bottom: pause in the hang. Elbows bending as the bar climbs: straight arms, a lighter bar. Chest lifting off the pad to finish: back flat against it.
Breathing
Exhale on the raise, inhale lowering.
