Dips

1. Starting Position

• Sit on the edge of the bench with your hands placed next to your hips.

• Your fingers should point forward (towards your feet), gripping the edge.

• Keep your legs extended straight out in front of you (advanced) or knees bent at 90° (beginner).

• Slide your hips off the bench so your body is supported by your arms.

2. Lower Yourself Down

• Slowly bend your elbows and lower your body straight down.

• Keep your elbows pointing backwards (not flaring out).

• Lower until your elbows are at about a 90° angle, or just above shoulder level.

3. Push Back Up

• Press through your palms to straighten your arms and lift your body back to the starting position.

• Focus on using your triceps to push up, not your legs.
