How much weight is appropriate for a novice to lift flat before doing dumbbells

We usually do 8-12 dumbbell front raises, so the weight is generally 10RM or 12RM. Compared with the middle and rear deltoid muscles, the front deltoid is indeed much stronger, so you may be able to do 12kg or 15kg. But remember, you must fully warm up at the beginning. Do not practice front raises as the first movement. Use a small weight to get used to it before loading such a weight. As for the number of sets, 4 sets are enough for formal exercises, and 1 or 2 sets for warm-up.

Essentials of dumbbell front raise

1. Stand naturally, or stand close to a 45-degree incline. Hold a barbell or dumbbell hanging in front of your legs with both hands, with a shoulder-width grip.

2. Lift the barbell (or dumbbell) forward and upward (with your elbows slightly bent) until it is above eye level. Then, slowly lower the restore; repeat.

Where to practice dumbbell front raise

The main training part of dumbbell front raise is the deltoid muscle, and it has the advantage that it does not exercise other parts and is not easy to use force. It mainly exercises the deltoid muscle that ends at the humerus. We also all know that when lifting heavy objects, the deltoid muscles actually move accurately on various planes. Therefore, through the exercise of our sport, the deltoid muscles can be trained to look better.
