Exercise Description
Cable Front Raise is a great variation of the front raise, which is used to build the muscles of the shoulders. It improves stability and reduces your chance of receiving an injury. Utilizing the cable in this exercise is useful because it provides constant tension on the target muscle group, and you move the weight through the range of motion.
