Front Shoulder Raises
Efficient shoulder range of motion arm positioning in the swing, and the ability to manipulate shots
Starting position:
Holding weights at side, maintain a neutral spine, slight bend in knees and hips
Movement:
Retract the shoulder blades to maintain posture, and with a straight, but not “locked out” elbow, raise both weights to the front of your body, no higher than the eyes. Do not allow your body to lean back
Notes: The arms should raise up, not the shoulders.This is more difficult for people with longer arms. Gauge weight accordingly or allow slight bend at elbows.
