How to perform it
- With a wide stance, hold a dumbell with both hands, grasping the head of the dumbbell instead of the handle. Your arms should be extended and hanging at the waist. This will be your starting position.
- Raise the weight until it is above shoulder level, keeping your arms extended. Your torso and hips should remain stationary throughout the movement.
- Return to the starting position and repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
Muscles worked
The Single Dumbbell Raise primarily targets your Shoulders, with support from your Forearms, Traps. You'll need dumbbell.
