How to Do Cable Front Raises

  1. Stand in front of a cable machine and attach a handle, rope, or straight bar to the low pulley.
  2. Grip the handle with a pronated grip (palms facing down) and stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, with your back facing the cable machine.
  3. Maintain a slight bend in your elbows and keep a neutral spine.
  4. Lift the handle straight forward until it reaches shoulder height, without using momentum from your body.
  5. Lower the weight back to the starting position in a controlled manner.
  6. Repeat for reps.

Commentary

This is an exercise where it is easy to pick a weight that is too heavy. Rather err on the lighter side, and strive for a strict form where you focus on getting good contact with your delts.
