# Dumbbell Lateral to Front Raise

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand with your arms at your sides and palms facing your body.

## How to do it

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand with your arms at your sides and palms facing your body.
2. Lift the dumbbells laterally to shoulder height, keeping a slight bend in your elbows.
3. From the lateral position, move the dumbbells forward until they are directly in front of you, keeping them at shoulder height.
4. Lower the dumbbells back to the starting position with control. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.

## Form tips

- Maintain a slight bend in your elbows to protect your joints.
- Keep your shoulders down and back to avoid straining your neck.
- Use a weight that allows you to perform the exercise with proper form.
