Fact checked by Kirsten Yovino, CPT Brookbush Institute
FACT CHECKEDIf you train your front delts hard enough, this muscle group can grow up to 5 times bigger compared to those who don't resistance train. That’s a lot of growth potential.
The front deltoids have this potential because they play a key role in many compound upper body movements, including exercise staples such as push ups, bench presses, and the overhead press.
To help you reach your maximum anterior delt growth potential, we put together this front delt strength and hypertrophy guide, which includes everything you need to know about building your anterior delts.
We'll explain how to do the 19 best front deltoid exercises, highlight programming advice and training tips, explain the shoulder anatomy, and highlight some great delt stretches.
Table of Contents:
We're going to start by briefly reviewing the muscle anatomy and functions of the anterior deltoid, so you better understand the muscle you're targeting. To get right to the best front delt exercises, keep scrolling.
The deltoid, a superficial muscle that forms the rounded contour of your shoulder, has three distinct sets of muscle fibers and muscle bellies.
The three heads of the deltoids:
All in all, your deltoid muscle plays a huge role in the gross movement of your arms. The anterior deltoid's primary functions include:
While there are a lot of exercises that target the anterior delts, it really comes down to two types of exercises.
The two exercises that work the anterior deltoids are:
These two different movements give you so many exercise options when you start to alter training variables like body position, grip position, load position, and equipment used. For example, rather than incline bench press, you could do decline push ups, rather than overhand front raises, you could do neutral grip front raises, and instead of standard overhead presses, you could do Arnold presses.
There are also other exercises that work the anterior deltoid with relatively decent muscle activation, including:
Any exercise that involves shoulder flexion, internal rotation, and abduction will be good for the front delt to some degree.
We are going to breakdown the anterior deltoid exercises into categories, just for the sake of keeping this all digestible. The categories will be vertical presses, horizontal presses, front raises, upright rows, and bodyweight exercises.
The 19 best anterior deltoid exercises are:
Being that vertical and horizontal presses are compound exercises, which your workouts should typically begin with, let’s start there.
Vertical presses mean you are doing a pressing motion from a standing or upright position, and your body is vertical.
The standard overhead press is an exercise that involves pressing a barbell or dumbbell (although other equipment can be used as you are going to see) overhead with your arms in a lateral position and your torso upright (vertical).
This exercise works all three heads of the deltoids, as well as your upper chest, triceps, serratus anterior and upper traps. The front and lateral deltoids are the main drivers of the movement. Your rear delts act as a stabilizer muscle, along with other muscles such as your rhomboids and the muscles of your core. Plainly speaking, it’s a big compound exercise, so it works a lot of muscles, but your front and side delts are the primary muscles targeted.
The overhead press is a great exercise to begin your shoulder or push workouts with as it is taxing and will require more energy.
In regards to equipment, there are various options, such as:
Generally speaking, it is the barbell or dumbbell that get the most attention for overhead presses, and rightfully so. Both have their advantages. The dumbbell overhead press involves more stability and thus activates the deltoids really well, and the barbell typically allows for the greatest potential load.
We recommend you switch things up by using barbells and dumbbells in exercises like this one and standing and seated overhead presses. Doing both will give you the variety needed to avoid diminishing returns andchallenge your muscles in different ways.
So, when looking at standard overhead press as a whole, we have the following variations:
We won’t explain how to do each, but we will show you pictures of all in action. But first, here are some key cues that will apply regardless of the variation.
Standing Overhead Press Tips:
Seated Overhead Press
Everything we just covered with standing overhead presses is true for seated overhead presses, but your lower body is taken out of the equation. Nevertheless, your feet should be firmly planted into the floor for stability and your core will be tight.Here are pics of the overhead press using different equipment:
Smith Machine Overhead Press
Resistance Band Overhead Press
We always recommend free weights for serious development, but bands are good for home workouts and supersetting.
The push press is a variation of the overhead press. It’s exactly the same except you will be using your lower body to help you press the bar up overhead. Essentially, it’s like a cheating overhead press, as you will bend at the knees and hips to help you explode the barbell (or kettlebells) up overhead.
The benefit of the push press is that it will allow you to use heavier loads, and thus increase your fundamental overhead strength and power.
Kettlebell Push Press
The kettlebell press is not as good for the front delts as a strict overhead press, but it’s great for the body as a whole. However, we really recommend this only for powerlifters, Crossfitters, athletes, and people who are into kettlebell sport. If you are strictly bodybuilding, you'll benefit more from barbells and dumbbells.
The Arnold press is a vertical dumbbell pressing exercise that moves you through multiple planes of motion. So rather than pressing straight up, you press up and laterally, rotating your arms outward.
Arnold Press Form Tips:
This vertical pressing exercise is great for both your front and middle delts, as well as all of the other muscles involved in a standard overhead press. This exercise targets your front delts really well due to beginning the exercise from the bottom position with your elbows out in front of you (that's shoulder flexion!).
Plus, because the bottom range of a vertical press is the hardest, it emphasizes the front delts in the position most important for building strength. All in all, it’s a big bang for your buck kind of exercise, plus it trains you through multiple planes of motion, which helps build up good movement coordination. There's a reason why Arnold Schwarzenegger was so fond of this exercise.
The reverse grip press is like the Arnold press but without rotating your forearms outward to an overhand position as you press overhead. With that, your elbows will remain forward and tension will remain focused on your front delts.
The only issue with the reverse grip press is you can’t really go too heavy, which is why the standard overhead press is still the king of front delt exercises. That said, this can be a nice addition to a routine for someone who wants to add some more focus on their front delts.
The hammer press is a front delt-centric press just like the reverse grip press as it keeps your elbows tucked and the movement focused completely on shoulder flexion (and of course elbow extension).
You can do this one either bilaterally or alternating. Both are good. The alternating option allows your to focus on one side at a time which can be good for fixing muscle imbalances and recruiting more of your core.
This exercise and the hammer grip (neutral grip) overhead press are pretty much as front delt dominant of presses as it gets. Both keep your elbows tucked forward and concentration on the shoulder joint.
I love Landmine Exercises like the landmine press because it uses a different angle and is also great for your scapula stabilizer muscles.
One of the greatest benefits of the landmine shoulder press is that it takes a lot of pressure off your shoulder joint in a way that doesn’t really take away from building strength and size as you can go pretty heavy while targeting the front delts beautifully.
Another great thing about the landmine press is that it will work your core really well too, as you will be pressing on just one side so your core will be activated to maintain stability.
Note: Two handed landmine presses are good, but they turn the exercise into more of an upper chest exercise with both the angle of the press and horizontal adduction of your arms. Nevertheless, it also targets the front delts well and can be done to kind of knock out two areas at once.
This exercise is the same as a standard military press but with a lot more stabilization demand. With the resistance bands hanging from the sleeves of the barbell with a weight at the end, the load becomes very unstable, which forces you to recruit your muscles differently. Every rep will require focus. This can lead to better muscle activation. It also does a great job of activating your rotator cuff complex to a higher degree.
Ultimately, this kind of exercise can be mixed in occasionally to help you build more injury resilience and overall strength through better stabilization.
Horizontal presses mean you’re pressing from a position where your body is horizontal (parallel with the floor), or in other words, push ups and bench presses.
Although incline presses are somewhere in the middle of vertical and horizontal, they fall into the horizontal category.
Horizontal presses are generally meant to target your pecs, but the front delt is a primary mover as well, and since these exercise typically allow you to maximize load, they are a must for building anterior deltoid strength.
Note: We will not go over the flat bench press, even though it is a must for any strength training routine, pending you don’t have any shoulder issues when benching (which is common with flat bench press). The flat bench press is great for the anterior delts too, but it’s more focused on the pec major. Rather than going over all the different variations of bench press, of which there are many, we will just stick to the ones that recruit the front delts the most.
The purpose of the incline bench press is to focus on the upper head of the pec major. However, as you know, the upper head and the front delt function together for pressing exercises, so you will also be working your front delt in a significant manner with incline presses, especially if using a 45˚ incline.
The great thing about the incline press is that you can go heavy too. As such, not only does it activate the front delt significantly, but it also allows it to be placed under the heaviest load. It’s probably the heaviest, front delt focused exercise you are going to do.
Check out our article in Incline Dumbbell Presses to learn more about the dumbbell variation of this exercise.
The close grip flat bench brings your hands to about shoulder width, which in turn keeps your elbows tucked to your side. With that, the movement is all about shoulder flexion and elbow extension rather than shoulder flexion, elbow extension, and horizontal adduction.
This means that the close grip flat bench press emphasizes the anterior deltoid, the upper head of the pec major, and the triceps. So, if you want to give your front delts a little more attention while also hitting other important muscles like your triceps, you can throw this into your chest workouts. It’s a smart way to make workouts more efficient.
Like the close grip bench press, the reverse grip prioritizes shoulder flexion, and thus, the movement becomes more front delt and upper chest focused. It also makes for a greater range of motion at the elbows, which causes more tricep activation. This top-ranking best exercise for front deltoids even proves to be an effective movement for your biceps.
All in all, if you want an exercise that fills a lot of needs - targeting your arms, shoulders and chest - the reverse grip is a good option. It’s typically a lot easier on the shoulder than close grip bench press too, which might make this a good alternative for some people.
It’s the same concept with the hammer press. The grip positions your elbows close to your side, which means the movement solely acts on shoulder flexion. So, like the reverse grip and close grip bench press, the hammer press, aka neutral grip bench press, places emphasis on your anterior delts and triceps.
Typically, the reason people do floor presses isn't because they don’t have a bench, but rather to work on the end range of motion of the bench press. By doing floor presses, you can address lockout issues and sticking points. In regards to the front delt, this top range of motion is front delt dominant, so the front delt will bear the brunt of the work.
If you want more information about horizontal presses, along with clear instructions on how to perform them, check out our guide to bench pressing.
While side raises also hit the front delts because the front delts are involved in shoulder abduction, we will stick to front raises and the variations of it because it is really specific to the anterior delts and that’s what this article is all about.
The front raise is a basic anterior delt isolation exercise, or at least as isolated as it gets considering the upper head of the pec major also acts on shoulder flexion.
It is a single joint movement, so movement only occurs at the shoulder joint. Needless to say, that movement is shoulder flexion. So, your elbow will be fixed as you lift your arm up.
There are many variations of the front raise. You can use different training variables like grip position, body position, and load position as well as different equipment. We will show you several of the best variations, but first let’s go over how to do the standard front raise with dumbbells, which is the most common version.
How to do a standing front raise:
Note: There’s no need to go higher than shoulder level and this exercise is best performed with lighter weight and higher reps (light weight is also safer in terms of risk of injury).
The most common variation of this is single arm dumbbell front raises (or alternating) which allows you to focus on one side at a time and involves a little more core work.
The front raise can also be done from a seated position with your arms directly at your sides as well.
Let’s go over some training variables for front raises now.
Equipment for Front Raises:
Although dumbbells are the most common equipment for front raises, they can also be done with:
Let's look at some exercises showing different equipment variations.
Cable Pulley Front Raise
Resistance Band Front Raise
If you enjoying training with bands, check out our article on the Best Cable Shoulder Exercises For 3D Delts!
Plate Front Raises
All of the various equipment are effective and will provide slightly different activation, so it’s good to switch things up.
Grip for Front Raises:
You have three options for grip position:
Body Position for Front Raises:
The main body positions for front raises are:
Standing vs Seated Front Raises: Both are highly effective and quite similar. It’s just that standing puts you in a biomechanically advantageous position so you can likely use a little heavier of a weight.
As for seated incline front raises, it will activate your pecs more and the prone incline (as you will see below) brings your back and middle delts into the picture.
Load Position for Front Raises:
Depending on your body position, you can alter the load position.
For example, when doing seated front raises, the load will be more to your side than with standing (although you can also position the load to your side when standing too). You can also brings the load closer to your centerline, by either holding both hands on one dumbbell, using a close grip on an EZ bar or simply doing front raises with a weighted plate.
The closer your hands are together, the more your upper chest will be involved, and the further they are, the more your side delts will be.
Of course, grip, body and load positioning can be mixed and match, as seen with these exercises:
Close Grip Front Raise
Seated Incline Underhand Grip Front Raise
Standing Underhand Front Raise
Alternating Front Raise
Close Grip Prone Incline Front Raise
Battle ropes are a full body condoning tool, but they emphasize the deltoids by nature of design and function. Essentially, when doing battle rope exercises, you are doing both conditioning and deltoid training (hypertrophy and endurance).
The best battle rope exercises for your front delts will be the ones where you are performing shoulder flexion. Essentially they are like dynamic front raises, which is why we've included them in the front raise category.
The best example is the classic battle rope wave.
Battle Rope Training Ideas:
Note: Studies show that battle ropes provide around 50% MVC (maximum voluntary contraction) for the anterior delts1. This is a lot considering front raises are just about 58% and DB shoulder is around 74%.
And, if you're a fan of battle rope training, make sure you get more workout inspiration in our article on the Best Battle Rope Exercises!
Most people think of upright rows when it comes to hitting their side delts and upper traps (as well as rear delts). However, it is also an effective exercise for the front delts.
Upright rows are generally done with dumbbells or EZ bars, but they can also be done with a smith machine, Olympic barbell, straight bar using a cable pulley machine, or resistance bands.
Deltoid Muscle Activation for Upright Rows2:
What this tells you is the upright row is a very worthy exercise for the deltoids as a whole. You’ll get the most activation at your side delts, but your front delts and rear delts will also be working hard, making the upright row one of the more well-rounded deltoid exercises. This is just another example of how to make your workouts effective and efficient.
We like to add this one at the end of the workout to really crush all three heads and give the middle delts the extra attention they deserve, considering the mid delts are generally the hardest to area to target effectively.
Are upright rows bad for your shoulders?
Upright rows get a somewhat bad rap as they can cause shoulder pain, but that’s only if you do them with too close of a grip. If your shoulders feel good, you can do them carefully with any grip width, but if you have some shoulder joint issue, simply use a wide grip and you should enjoy some pain free upright row delt growth.
Just because you don’t have access to a gym or free weight equipment doesn’t mean you can’t hit your front delts effectively.
Standard push ups provide 48% MVC, which means they are quite effective at targeting the front delts2. Move your feet up onto a platform (decline push ups) and the MVC will increase.
So, decline push ups is a great option, but here are a few others more front delt specific bodyweight exercises to add to your routine.
The pike push up is very demanding push up variation (yes, harder than a regular push up!). This body positioning places emphasis on your deltoids (especially the front delts) and triceps, as well as your upper back and serratus anterior.
The higher up your feet and the your torso becomes perpendicular to the floor, the more shoulder activation you get and the harder it’ll be.
Handstands are to overhead presses as push ups are to bench press. It is the bodyweight version of the overhead press. The biggest difference is, handstands are a lot harder than push ups, especially if you do handstand push ups.
For beginners, try to do handstands and hold the position for 10-20 seconds. It’s an isometric exercise, which is a great way to build strength in your shoulders, arms, upper back and chest.
Once you build strength, you can attempt handstand push ups. Obviously, these are very difficult, because you are using your entire bodyweight as a load. So, if you weigh 200lbs, it’s like doing a 200lb overhead press. Most people won’t be able to do them, but even if you can get a couple reps, it will be effective.
The chest dip (aka parallel dip) is a great exercise for your pec major, but it also activates the anterior delts (along with other muscles) very well. A study from ACE shows that dips provide 41% MVC, which is just below push ups2. This relatively high muscle activation makes perfect sense considering the movement involves shoulder flexion along with elbow extension.
Even if you go to the gym, we recommend doing chest dips. It’s an all-around great compound movement.
Note: If you don't have dip bars, you can simply set up sturdy chairs and do dips in-between them. Check out our Best Dip Exercise Alternatives for more great ways to work your front delts with dips.
The final exercise we have for you is the tricep dip. Like the chest dip, it involves a degree of shoulder flexion, so it’s going to activate your anterior deltoid pretty well. Not as good as chest dips, but definitely a worthy addition to any push workout, at home or the gym.

It really depends on your split. So let’s go over a few examples, all of which assume that your front delts are lagging, most likely aesthetically-speaking, and you want to give them a little more attention.
If you are doing a body part split, which separates chest and shoulder day, then you can hit your anterior delts on both chest day and shoulder day, which is great as hitting a muscle group twice a week is shown to be best for hypertrophy. Of course, these two workout days must be separated by at least 48 hours to ensure recovery of your anterior delts before the next time hitting them.
Chest Day:
With this chest workout, you will be getting a fair amount of anterior delt work in. However, your shoulder day will have more focus on them.
Shoulder Day:
The first three exercises are anterior focused, although overhead presses provide you good lateral delt activation as well since your arms are positioned laterally when pressing. This is a well-rounded shoulder workout in terms of targeting all three heads. The overhead press will be a heavy lift, the rest should be moderate with lower rest times, so this workout shouldn’t take you very long.
If you are doing an Upper Lower Split or PPL split, where you are training your chest and shoulders together, then you simply just need to focus on the big compound presses and add one front delt isolation exercise in.
For example, a good push day that allows you to give a little extra emphasis on your front delts can look like this:
With this kind of workout, your front delts are getting a lot of attention. In fact, they are arguably the main attraction. So, if you do this kind of workout, it would be important to change things up after some time once your front delts catch up. Also, you’d ideally want to alternate between incline dumbbell press and flat bench press to ensure the lower head of your pec major is being worked enough. You could do this week by week.
Overall, things aren’t as complicated as many make it out to be. If you want your front delts to grow, then make sure you are killing them during workout days that you are focusing on the shoulders, and get enough food to support the growth. It’s that simple. And, you also need to remember that balanced training is important, so don’t let your other delts fall by the wayside.

Here are the best rep ranges, load, total volume, and frequency for anterior deltoid development.
How many reps you should do mean nothing without consideration for load. So, when discussing one, you need to mention the other.
When programming for your delt workout, the anterior delts respond slightly better to heavier weight for low to moderate reps (i.e. 3-10 reps), but lighter weight with high reps (10-15 reps) is effective as well, as long as the weight load should challenge you (bring you to failure or near failure) in the given rep ranges.
As we know, overhead presses, incline presses, and front raises are the best exercises for the front delts, so let’s look at these in relation to reps and load.
Note: Good form is essential on both presses and raises, to ensure you are activating the front delts rather than compensating (cheating) with momentum or the use of other muscles.
When asking how often you should train your front deltoids, you need to consider both total volume and frequency per week with shoulder training.
Most suggest that the front delts recover on the slower side. As such, if you want to train them directly, you should aim for 2x per week, and at most 3x, with rest of 48 hours between sessions that directly target the front delts.
Remember, the front delts are trained with chest exercises, so if you do too much volume directly for your front delts, you may start to compromise chest training.
An example of 12 sets per week would look like this:
With that, you’d have a total volume of 12 sets that are directly front delts.
This should be plenty for most trainees.
It should be noted that in actuality, your front delts will receive even more stimulation than this as they will also be activated during flat bench, push ups, flys and other shoulder exercises, just to a lesser degree.

As you saw, we have a plethora of front deltoid muscle exercises. We have provided you with all of these for the following reasons:
If you want your front delts to grow and get stronger, then here are a few simple tips to follow:
The anterior deltoid is a common area of tightness for people. It’s also a common muscle to become overactive since it is used so often. As such, it would be very advantageous to implement stretching and myofascial release of the anterior deltoid into your routine.
By doing deltoid stretches, you can reduce tightness and stiffness, allow your to have better range of motion and mobility. Moreover, you can avoid rounding of the shoulders and poor posture as well as the anterior deltoids becoming overactive during exercises where you want your pecs to be activated to the max.
Here are some of the best anterior deltoid stretches that you can do.
Arm circles are a great way to dynamically stretch and warm up your shoulders before a workout. It will help improve your range of motion and get blood flowing and muscles activated.
To do this stretching exercise, all you have to do is make a circle with your arms. Do big circles, small circles, circles close to your sides and circles with your arms out completely to your side.
As the name suggests, this is a stretch for your shoulder flexors...ergo, your front delts. To do this exercise, simply place your arm behind your back with a 90˚ bend in your elbow.
Position your hand so your fingers are pointing straight up and your palm is facing away from its elbow. Then, use your opposite hand to lift up your forearm a little. This will allow you to get a deeper stretch. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds then release.
This is a great way to get a deep stretch in your front delts, upper chest, biceps, and forearms. It places your arms in maximum shoulder extension, which fully lengthens your anterior deltoid muscles.
To do this exercise, place your hands palm down on a table (or something of the like) behind you then slowly squat down until your shoulders are in line with your hands. If you can’t go that deep, that’s perfectly fine. Just go as far as you comfortably can. Once you feel a good stretch, hold the stretch for 20 seconds then release.
This is essentially the same as the previous stretch but without any assistance, and thus will not hyperextend your muscles. To do this exercise, bring your hands behind your back and interlock them.
Extend at your elbows then lift up as far as you comfortably can. Once you feel a good stretch, hold the stretch for 20 seconds then release.
This is a great and simple stretch for your shoulders and chest. To do this exercise, stand in an open doorway, raise each arm to its sides (with arms bent at 90˚ or straight) and palms forward, then slowly step and lean forward. Hold the stretch for 20 seconds then release.
Let's look at some frequently asked questions regarding the anterior deltoids.
The benefit of having strong, well-built front delts is that they help protect your shoulder joint, keeping it stable during arm movements. In addition, strong front delts will make arm movements that involve shoulder flexion, internal rotation, and abduction more powerful and productive. And, strong front delts will improve the overall aesthetics and definition of your shoulders.
The question is not should you train front delts, it’s should you do isolation exercises that target the front delts, because you obviously should be training the front delts.
This depends on whether your shoulders are underdeveloped and weak or overdeveloped and overactive. If your front delts are weak and underactive, isolation exercises after doing the big pressing exercises can give you the targeted boost that they need.
If your anterior deltoids are overactive, then you can probably skip out on front delt isolation exercises, stick to the big compound presses, and start doing more middle and rear delt work.
Note: The primary reason people do front delt isolation exercises is for hypertrophy purposes (aesthetics and definition), as overall strength should be taken care of with the big pressing movements.
The vast majority of people who have been training for years don’t have weak delts, because the front delts are activated on every pressing movement, both chest and shoulder presses.
The fact of the matter is, having weak (imbalanced) rear delts is FAR more common because the rear delts are simply harder to target. The same is true for the middle delts.
Most would argue that front delt focused isolation exercises are the least necessary, so long as you are doing big compound pressing movements. Nevertheless, adding one front delt isolation exercise to your training along with the big pressing movements can’t hurt as long as your front delts aren't already overactive.
Note: If you feel like your front delts are weak during pressing exercises, it may just be that they are overtrained. Think about it, if you have a split that involves shoulder and chest days, then your front delts may not have recovered enough between sessions. It is also possible that your front delts are exhausting easily because the total weekly volume of front delt work is too great.
What’s way more common than weak front delts, especially for late-beginner to intermediates, is overactive front delts. This means the front delts are taking over exercises like flat bench press, causing them to feel like they are tiring out before the pecs.
The best thing you can do in this case is to focus on good form (shoulder blades retracted and minimizing shoulder movement during bench) or try some grip variations of bench press that are better at emphasizing the pecs (i.e. wide grip flat bench).
A big problem with overactive front delts is that it’s simply hard to overload your pecs adequately because your front delts are taking over bench (or push ups).
Moreover, overactive front delts will lead to hunched posture (rounded shoulders) due to tightness. This causes an array of problems, such as chronic rotator cuff pain.
Overall, if your front delts are overactive, it will lead them to be overdeveloped and other muscles to be underdeveloped. Muscle imbalances like this are not good for aesthetics either.
The good news if this is your issue is it can be fixed.
If you have overactive front delts, you should:
If your front delts are lagging both in strength and size, you'll need to place more emphasis on big compound exercises like incline bench press and overhead press and throw some front delt isolation exercises into your workout as well.
Try to hit your front delts twice a week and you should bring them up to par in no time. It’s important that your front delts are strong as they play a key role in 2 out of the 4 biggest compound lifts (bench press and overhead press), not to mention you use them anytime you lift up your arms!
Now, if you ARE doing incline bench press, overhead press, and even some front deltoid isolation exercises and they are still underdeveloped, then it could very well be a form issue, a volume issue, a frequency issue, a diet issue, a progression issue, or all of the above.
Your front delts are the biggest head of your shoulder muscle and involved in many compound lifts, ranging from push ups to bench presses to the overhead press (and all of their variations).
As a refresher, these are the best front deltoid muscle exercises:
If you feel your anterior delts are lagging in strength and development, be sure to include these exercises in your workout plan and play around with the variations as you see fit. Use your best judgment when designing your program, and most importantly, make sure you're not neglecting any part of your shoulder.
