Previous The raise is one of the most classic training exercises in the gym! It is a single-joint training action (shoulder flexion) and is often used by people to strengthen the anterior deltoid muscles!
In fact, in addition to the main anterior deltoid muscles, front raises can also exercise our chest muscles, especially the upper side of the chest muscles!
Affected by the direction of fiber arrangement in the upper chest, the muscles near the clavicle are mainly used to help the shoulder joint forward flexion
But if you want to better exercise the upper chest muscles, you can still Need to make some changes to the traditional front raise!
The action is as follows:
Different from the traditional front raise training, we choose to use an underhand grip (palms facing up), hold the dumbbell (with one hand)!
When lifting forward, you don’t lift your arms vertically upwards, but lift your arms upwards and inwards!
You can use one hand and hold the top of your chest with one hand to feel the contraction of your chest muscles! Hold for a second at the top of the movement and squeeze your chest muscles!
Notes:
Be sure to keep your trunk stable during movements and do not shake your body to use force!
This action can be placed before and after training as an auxiliary training for your chest muscles!
