Front Raise, Dumbbell Alternating Steps:

Step 1:
Stand upright with feet shoulder width apart.
Step 2:
Take a dumbbell of equal weight in each hand, palms facing down.
Step 3:
Start with the dumbbells resting on your thighs.
Step 4:
With the arm straight, raise one arm forwards until the dumbbell is at shoulder height.
Step 5:
Lower the arm to the start position and repeat with the opposite arm.

Top Tip:

Avoid swinging the torso to raise the arms as this can cause stress on the lower back. Keep a slight bend in the elbows.
