Forward Dumbbell Deltoid Raise | Dryland Workout | Technique Explained
Dumbbells used: https://swimcore.co.uk/dumbbells
The anterior deltoid, the primary muscle engaged throughout this exercise, is a key player in the recovery process of the butterfly, breaststroke, and especially backstroke.
During butterfly, it is active during the second half of the recovery, and during breaststroke, it contributes by guiding the movements of the arm and hand from underneath the swimmer's chest to a fully extended and elongated position, maximising the efficiency of the stroke.
The entire recovery phase of backstroke, from water exit until reentry, also relies on recruitment of the anterior deltoid. As the speed of the stroke increases and the need for rapid recovery increases, so does the demand places on the muscle.
VARIATION: Forward Deltoid Raise With Tubing Find Tubing Here: https://swimcore.co.uk/tubing Tubing targets the same muscles, but because of the ease of varying the resistance by simply stretching or slackening the exercise tubing, this variation may be better than the dumbbell variation for an on-deck dryland program.
