How to do it
This dumbbell exercise works all three heads of the deltoid muscle.
Begin in a standing position with feet hip-width apart and a dumbbell in each hand. Perform a side lateral raise for desired repetitions or time. Next, perform a front raise. Lastly, perform a hip hinge and hold the position, then execute the final movement, a rear raise, also known as a reverse fly.
Focus on keeping the core engaged throughout the entire exercise. Make sure in the first two phases you do not lean back or use momentum to raise the dumbbells.
Perform for a desired number of repetitions. When the total repetitions become easy, increase the weight of the dumbbells by 5 percent.
