Front Plate Raise

Shoulders · Weight plate

How to do it

Hold a plate by the sides at thigh height and raise it to eye level with arms nearly straight. Lower slowly. The plate splits the load between both hands and is comfortable on the wrists. You feel it in front of the shoulder. Same warning as the front raise: it is an accessory, the front delt already gets plenty.

Variants

The drawing shows one way of doing it, and the technique above describes that one. Almost every exercise has variants — standing or seated, the grip, the bench angle — and is still the same exercise: if you do it another way, write it in the exercise note and you will have it every time you train it.
