I wanted to show you a quick exercise that I’ve used over the years to not only build muscle but to strengthen the shoulder complex. You have to see this!

Full Range Front Raises

How to Execute:

1. Grab a barbell with a double overhand grip
2. Raise the barbell from the start position to a position locked overhead.

Benefits

• Building the shoulder through a complete range of motion (ROM)
• Improves decelerative extension strength

Recommendations: For those with shoulder issues, perform this exercise by grabbing the outside of an Olympic plate.  This will allow you to keep your hands in a neutral position with is an easier position for the shoulder (less irritation to any pre-existing rotator cuff issues).
