Dumbbell Prone T Raise
About
Dumbbell T-raises strengthen your upper back and rear shoulders. They target your traps and rhomboids, helping stabilize your upper back and shoulder line.
How to Dumbbell Prone T Raise
Starting Position
1. Lie face down on the floor and hold a dumbbell in each hand.
2. Lower your arms naturally to the sides of your body, with your palms facing each other.
3. Keep your body straight and your gaze directed towards the floor.
Proper Form
1. Keep your arms straight and lift them to the sides to form a T shape.
2. Contract the upper back by feeling as if you are bringing your shoulder blades together.
3. Slowly lower your arms back to the starting position.
4. Maintain stability in your upper body while repeating the movement.
Breathing Technique
Exhale when you lift your arms, and inhale when you return to the starting position.
Precautions
1. Avoid using excessively heavy dumbbells and use a manageable weight.
2. Be careful not to put excessive strain on your shoulders and neck.
3. Perform the exercise slowly without momentum to prevent shoulder and back injuries.
