Exercise Description

The dumbbell front raise on incline bench exercise targets your front deltoids while giving your core extra stability work. It builds shoulder strength and size better than standing versions.

How To

1. Set an incline bench to 45 degrees and sit with your back flat against the pad, holding dumbbells at your sides. 2. Keep a slight bend in your elbows and engage your core throughout the dumbbell front raise on incline bench movement. 3. Lift both dumbbells straight up in front of you until they reach shoulder height, keeping your wrists straight. 4. Hold for one second at the top, then slowly lower the weights back to starting position with control. 5. Complete your reps for the dumbbell front raise on incline bench, keeping your back pressed against the bench the entire time.

Form Tips

• Keep your core tight and back pressed against the bench throughout the entire dumbbell front raise on incline bench movement • Use a controlled tempo - 2 seconds up, 1 second hold, 2 seconds down for maximum muscle activation • Stop at shoulder height to avoid shoulder impingement and maintain tension on the front deltoids • Keep a slight bend in your elbows during the dumbbell front raise on incline bench to protect your joints

Common Mistakes

• Using too much weight and swinging the dumbbells up instead of controlling the dumbbell front raise on incline bench movement • Lifting the weights too high above shoulder level, which can cause shoulder impingement and injury • Arching your back off the bench during the dumbbell front raise on incline bench, which reduces stability and effectiveness
