Front Delt Development
I can’t develop my front delts. No matter what combo of exercises, reps, whatever, they just won’t budge. My side and rear delts are fine, but without the front my shoulders really cave in. Any tips or suggestions?
Don’t know what can be done beyond any and all of the dumbbell pressing movements from flat to steep inclines and military (front) presses. Forward or front lateral-raises should help. I suspect it’s a structural challenge. Caps and rear deltoids are the usual culprits; front deltoids not so much.
Focus and isolate, high and low reps within a pyramid MO…
I like one-arm front dumbbell raises while holding on to a stable upright. Thoughtfully practiced, these single-arm movements can really blast the shoulders according to your direction… go light to heavy, with increasing thrust… four sets x 6 to 12 reps along with your mid- to steep-incline dumbbell pressing schedule twice a week.
We never quit… Dave
