Standing Straight Bar Cable Front Raise

How To Do A Standing Straight Bar Cable Front Raise

The standing straight bar cable front raise is a great exercise to target the shoulders, in particular the anterior front of the deltoids.

To get started:

1. Attach a straight bar to a lower pulley at a cable machine.
2. Face away from the cable machine with the cable between your legs, grab the straight bar with a shoulder width, overhand grip, stand up straight, with your arms extended down by your sides.
3. Keeping your core and glutes contracted, chest upright and stationary, lift the bar with your arms extended until the bar reaches eye level, just above parallel to the ground.
4. Under control, slowly reverse the movement, without letting the tension off the shoulders at the bottom of the range.
5. Repeat.
