Front plate raise

Stand up straight and grab a barbell plate with your hands placed at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions. The plate should be in front of you and down near your waist with your arms extended and with a slight bend at your elbows. Now, as you exhale, raise the plate until it is slightly above shoulder level. Now, as you inhale, slowly return to the starting position. Do not swing the weight or your torso. Your torso should be stationary at all times.
