How to do a tricep dip

  1. Grip parallel bars, arms straight
  2. Lower body by bending elbows
  3. Go until upper arms parallel or comfortable depth
  4. Push up to starting position

Form tips

  • Lean forward for more chest, upright for more triceps
  • Don't go too deep (shoulder strain)
  • Control the descent
  • Full lockout at top
  • Add weight when bodyweight is easy
