FitnessTracker is a local-first, privacy-focused fitness application that helps you measure progress, track workouts, and stay consistent — all without subscriptions, logins, or tracking. This page covers how to perform the alternating deltoid raise, including tips, variations, and the muscle groups it targets.
Front and lateral deltoid raises develop shoulder shape and endurance. This alternating version keeps tension on the muscles while allowing better focus on each side.
Instructions
- Stand upright with a dumbbell in each hand at your sides.
- Raise one arm forward to shoulder height, then lower it.
- On the next rep, raise the same arm laterally to shoulder height and lower.
- Switch arms and continue alternating between front and lateral raises.
