    Dumbbell Front Raise

    The dumbbell front raise is a shoulder exercise that targets the deltoid muscles, particularly the anterior (front) portion. It also engages the bicep and trapezius as secondary muscles. The movement involves lifting dumbbells in front of the body to shoulder height, focusing on controlled motion and proper form.
