How to do it

  1. 01

    Lie on a flat bench while holding a barbell using a palms down grip that is about 15 inches apart.

  2. 02

    Place the bar on your upper thighs, extend your arms and lock them while keeping a slight bend on the elbows. This will be your starting position.

  3. 03

    Now raise the weight using a semicircular motion and keeping your arms straight as you inhale. Continue the same movement until the bar is on the other side above your head . (Tip: the bar will travel approximately 180-degrees). At this point your arms should be parallel to the floor with the palms of your hands facing the ceiling.

  4. 04

    Now return the barbell to the starting position by reversing the motion as you exhale.

  5. 05

    Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

In the app

Front Raise And Pullover appears when you own a barbell and the day's window has room for it. Loads come from Rule 3 (Loads rise when earned, read from RPE, graded strong) and climb on the reps you actually did.

If a machine is taken the engine swaps a same-pattern movement and says why.

If you don't have a barbell

Same movement pattern, same primary muscles — swap by what you have.
