Triceps Dip
Target Muscle
Secondary Muscles
Equipment
Place your hands shoulder-width apart on the bench or chair, extend your legs out in front of you, and move your body forward so that your back is just in front of the bench.
Slowly lower your body by bending your elbows until they form a 90-degree angle, ensuring your back is close to the bench.
Once you reach the bottom of the movement, push your body back up using your triceps to bring your body back to the starting position.
Repeat this movement for your desired number of repetitions, ensuring to maintain proper form throughout the exercise.
Pro Tip
**Lowering Your Body**: Bend your elbows to slowly lower your body towards the floor until your elbows are at a 90-degree angle. Ensure your back is close to the bench throughout this movement. Common Mistake: Some people tend to move their body too far away from the bench, which puts unnecessary strain on the shoulders. **Maintaining Form**: Keep your core engaged and your shoulders down and back during the exercise. This helps to maintain proper form and targets the triceps more effectively.
