Parallel Bar Dips

How To Do Parallel Bar Dips Correctly

Parallel Bar Dips are a great exercise that primarily targets the triceps, but also the chest and shoulders.

To get started:

1. Grab the bars and lift yourself until your arms are straight.
2. Bend your elbows, and slowly lower yourself under control until your upper arms go just below your elbows.
3. Make sure you keep the tension on your triceps by keeping your elbows tucked to your sides.
4. Pause then push yourself back up to the starting position while squeezing your triceps, with your arms fully extended.
5. Repeat.
