Front Rope Raises

Description

Using the cable machine and the rope attachment to perform front raises is yet another effective way to strengthen the front of the shoulders (anterior deltoids). The notable techniques to be employed throughout execution involve limiting the range of motion. On the decent, it is important to stop prior to the hands reaching the top of the thigh. Doing so will keep the resistance on the shoulders between repetitions. Also, the trainee should also be careful not to extend the arms beyond shoulder height to reduce the risk of sustaining an injury.
