The Front Shoulder Raise… On Steroids.

So it’s almost summertime and your shoulders are still lacking. What are you going to do? The shoulders are one of the most overlooked parts in the workout arsenal. Because it’s involved in damn near every upper body workout casual lifters assume it’s already covered. But when they come up against people who seriously lift, they look like amateurs and wonder why. The truth is working your shoulders specifically should be a staple in your workout and the front raise should be in your arsenal.

Men’s health Fitness Director  B.J. Gaddour gives you 3 different ways to do the front raise from hell. If done properly this exercise not only hits all the muscles in your shoulder complex (Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres major, Teres minor, deltoid, etc.) but gives you flexibility through range of motion, and inadvertently works your mid and upper back as well.

Even if you are a seasoned vet, muscle confusion is key. The Front shoulder raise is a great way to switch things up or add something new to an already stellar circuit. Check out the full workout below and be sure to let us know what you think in the comments section.
