This targets your anterior delts as well, but also uses your lateral delts, trapezius, triceps, and the top portion of your chest. Actually you'll find each of these movements uses more than one portion of your delts and the trapizius as well—it's just that the focus changes with each pattern.

You have it covered. Good work.
