Dumbbell Rear Delt Raise

IntermediateDumbbell

An isolation move that zeroes in on the rear deltoids, the muscles at the back of your shoulders. Bending forward at the hips changes the angle so the raise targets the rear delts instead of the side or front. Keeping the load light here matters more than piling on weight.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Grab a dumbbell in each hand and stand with feet about shoulder-width apart.

  2. 2

    Hinge forward to roughly 45 degrees with a soft bend in your knees, letting the dumbbells hang below your shoulders, palms facing each other.

  3. 3

    Keep a slight bend in your elbows and your back flat.

  4. 4

    Raise the dumbbells out to the sides until they reach shoulder level, drawing your shoulder blades together at the top.

  5. 5

    Lower them back down slowly and repeat.
