Dumbbell Rear Lunge Front Raise
The Dumbbell Rear Lunge Front Raise combines lower body and shoulder strength training. This exercise targets the legs while engaging the shoulders for stability and strength.
- Stand with a dumbbell in each hand at your sides.
- Step back with your right leg into a lunge while raising both dumbbells in front of you to shoulder height.
- Return to the starting position and repeat on the left side.
- Maintain a straight back and engage your core throughout the movement.
How to perform the Dumbbell Rear Lunge Front Raise
- Set up. Set up in a stable, balanced starting position appropriate for the Dumbbell Rear Lunge Front Raise using your dumbbell.
- Brace and execute. Brace your core, control the descent, and move through a full pain-free range of motion while emphasizing your glutes.
- Reset. Reverse the movement under control and reset between repetitions, keeping your form crisp on every rep.
Coaching cues
- Move with intent — every rep should feel deliberate, not rushed.
- Drive force through your glutes rather than momentum.
- Keep your breathing steady: exhale on the hard part, inhale on the reset.
Common mistakes
- Using too much weight and losing positional control.
- Cutting the range of motion short and missing the target muscle.
- Letting your spine round or hyperextend instead of staying neutral.
