Chest Dip

Support yourself on parallel bars with the arms extended. Lean the torso forward and cross or tuck the legs slightly behind.

Lower until a comfortable stretch is felt across the chest, keeping the forward lean, then press back up to nearly straight arms.

• Maintain the forward torso lean
• Keep the shoulders down away from the ears
• Stop the descent where the shoulders stay comfortable

• Staying upright, shifting the work to the triceps
• Dropping too deep and irritating the shoulders
• Bouncing out of the bottom

• Assisted dip
• Weighted dip
