What's the best exercise for front delts??

[TC2]

My front delts have been lacking and I need some advice on training them??

 

[PolishHammer1977]

Front raises (logical thought)

Military Press (what I did/do)

 

[bignate73]

close grip militaries (elbows forward)

 

[louden_swain]

incline barbell presses
seated barbell presses
parallel dips

My favorite would be the standard overhead press, either seated or standing. However I've switched to seated after hearing that you can injure your lower back easier in the standing version if your form slips.

wide grip militaries actually as the close grip gets a lot of help form tris.....do them after you have pre-fatigued them with front raises

parallel dips

u sure about that??? ive been doin weighted dips for the past 6 weeks and i noticed my lower chest getting rounder and a bit thicker... my military has gone up too form them, but, i dont think they are a really big mass builder since you use chest the most.

i think any kind of pressing like Miitary press to the front or back and DB military... I noticed when I switch to DB military and go back to BB military im a bit stronger...

also flat bench press and incline bench press hits my front delt harcore. this one huge, and i mean HUGE black guy at my gym is really strong and let me tell u what he does: youll die...

Monday

Flat bench press - 4x6-8, 4x1-4

Tricep pressdown - 5-6x12-20

DB curls - 5x10-12

Thusrday

Flat bench press - 10x15

Hammer row - 5x10-12

Tricep press down - 5xs10-12
----------------------------------------------
hes donw in like, 1 hr, his legs are twigs, but fuck, he can bench 495+ and his front delts a bowling balls, 21 in arms, 58 in chest... im not lying, we took a measuring tape to him... hes about 5'6-5'7 230... but.. twice a week, and guess how old he is........................FIFTY-TWO

i jsut thought id say that cuz ive never seen him do military once and his chest is sooo thick.. he is THICK.. like.. an OAK tree.. haha, prolly genetics but.....

 

[Debaser]

genetics probably gear too

 

[TheOak84]

genetics probably gear too

not at all, dont be a hater, i think its cuz hes old and has been working out for like 35 years..

pretty much all pressing movements will involve the front delts. Wide grip up-right rows target the area as well.
