Pro Tip

Proper Form: Slide your buttock off the bench, extending your legs out in front of you. Lower your body by bending your elbows until they're at about a 90-degree angle, then push back up. Keep your back close to the bench throughout the exercise. Avoid locking your elbows at the top of the movement as it can put unnecessary strain on your joints. Controlled Movement: One common mistake is rushing through the exercise. Make sure to perform each dip slowly and with control. This will help engage your muscles effectively and prevent injury. Engage Your Core: While the focus of bench dips is primarily on your triceps, don't forget to engage your core.
