Video Transcript

"Front Raise for the midi part of the front part of the Shoulder Cable Pulley System. Feet hip width apart, you want to give yourself along enough straight bar. We can have a wide enough grip to line up the wrists, elbows and shoulders. Big inhale and exhale with a slight bend in the knees, bring the arms out in front of you with a slight bend in the elbows and release. Slightly touching the thigh but you don't want to release that constant contraction. So you're going to choose weight that's going to fatigue that front part of the shoulder, in ten to fifteen reps, working one to three sets. But where you're keeping constant contraction here, slight release down, control with your core, slight contraction in the abs, but not enough to impair your breathing. Inhale, exhale, boom, there's your contraction and release. You're going to fatigue quick on those because you got resistance all the way up and all the way down on the movement. Ten to fifteen reps, one to three sets."
