Handle Band Forward Raise

BeginnerResistance band

This band version of the front raise isolates the front of the shoulder while the band's rising tension makes the top of each rep the hardest part. Standing on the band and lifting from your hips makes it tough to cheat with body sway or leg drive. Pick a band that lets you move through the whole range without stalling early.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Stand on the middle of the band, feet hip-width apart, holding a handle in each hand by your hips with an overhand grip.

  2. 2

    Keeping your arms straight, sweep the handles up in an arc in front of you.

  3. 3

    Raise them to just above head height.

  4. 4

    Lower back down to your hips under control.

  5. 5

    Choose a band tension that keeps resistance manageable across your full range of motion.
