Technique

How to perform Front Raise And Pullover

1. Lie lengthwise on a flat bench with your head supported and feet on the floor.
2. Hold the barbell above your upper thighs with a palms-down grip slightly narrower than shoulder width.
3. Keep a small, fixed elbow bend and raise the bar in an arc until it is above your chest.
4. Continue the arc behind your head under control, keeping your torso against the bench.
5. Reach the overhead position only as far as you can maintain the same elbow angle and trunk position.
6. Reverse the arc over your chest and lower the bar toward your upper thighs without bending the elbows into a press.
