This is how to build arm and core strength - seated front raise

In this instructional video, Bill Daniels of beyondfitnessonline.com demonstrates a seated front‑raise exercise designed to build both core stability and arm strength. He begins by explaining the minimal equipment needed—a towel, Pilates ball, or any soft support for the lower back—and outlines the starting position: seated on the floor with lumbar support, knees slightly bent, torso leaned back as far as comfortably possible while maintaining a stable posture, and arms extended straight forward. Bill then guides viewers to lift the arms overhead by extending from the hips, noting the challenge this creates for the core when the arms are raised. He introduces progressive overload options, including holding 5‑lb dumbbells in a neutral grip, switching to overhand or underhand grips, and performing the movement one arm at a time, with or without weight. The video concludes with a call for viewers to comment if they found the exercise helpful and a reminder to “live healthy.”
