Weight Plate Front Raise Instructions
- Grab a weight plate with your palms facing one another at around the 3 and 9 o'clock positions.
- Stand up with your shoulders back and core engaged, and hold the weight about 5 inches from your body. This is the starting position for the exercise.
- Keeping a slight bend in your elbows, slowly raise the plate until your arms are just above parallel to the floor.
- Pause and slowly lower the plate back to the starting position.
- Repeat for desired reps.
Weight Plate Front Raise Tips
- This is an isolation exercise so you must focus on strict technique to isolate the front deltoids.
- Don't let the plate touch your body during the set.
- Keep the rep timing slow, and lower the weight slowly.
- Keep your core engaged, don't swing to assist in moving the weight up.
