Stand with a dumbbell in each hand hanging at arms’ length at your sides. Keeping the arms close to straight, raise the dumbbells out to the sides and up past shoulder height. Keeping the weights at the same height, move the arms to point straight forward, then lower. You can repeat the same motion for the set, or alternate starting each rep with the front raise and lateral raise.
 
Purpose
The dumbbell front to side raise focuses on the lateral and anterior delts with some work for the upper back and neck. Combining the two provides variety, and adds more of a stability component.
 
Programming
Generally sets of 8-15 reps are appropriate.
