Exercises Build Stronger Shoulders, Back and Core

Build Stronger Shoulders, Back and Core

Build stronger shoulders, back and core with the anterior/lateral dumbbell shoulder raise exercise. This is an intermediate exercise and should be performed on a stable surface prior to performing it on StrongBoard Balance board. This exercise is primarily for the shoulders but will also work the entire core musculature, along with the scapulothoracic region.
