The Amazing Stickie and Front Raise






The Amazing Stickie, as we all know by now, loves a challenging exercise.  Today she is demonstrating the front raise.

She begins standing in her usual fabulous posture.  She holds some light weights out directly in front of her in what she likes to call the zombie position.  Then she raises the weights over her head until her upper arms are next to her ears.  She lowers back down to the starting position.

 

Stickie would like to remind us that it is important to keep good posture throughout.  Sometimes it can be hard to keep from arching the back while raising the arms.  It is always a good idea to keep the shoulders down out of our ears no matter what our arms are doing.

 

Because this exercise challenges the front part of the deltoids, Stickie likes to work in sets of ten to avoid listening to them complain too much.
