Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Dumbbell Bent-Over Reverse Raise (Skier).
A rear deltoid isolation exercise performed in a bent-over stance that mimics a skier's tuck position. Holding a dumbbell in each hand with arms extended downward, you raise both arms back and slightly out to the sides, strongly engaging the posterior deltoids and upper back.
The Dumbbell Bent-Over Reverse Raise (Skier) is a foundational movement that builds strength and muscle through controlled, progressive overload. Train it 1 to 2 times per week with 3 to 5 working sets per session, gradually adding weight or reps as form holds up.
