Barbell Rear Delt Raise
Expert Advice
Focus on using your rear delts to lift the weight, rather than swinging or using momentum.
How-to-do Steps
- Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and hold a barbell with an overhand grip.
- Bend forward at the waist, keeping your back straight, until your torso is nearly parallel to the floor.
- With a slight bend in the elbows, raise the barbell out to the sides until your arms are parallel to the floor.
- Pause at the top, then slowly lower the barbell back to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
