How to do dips

How to do dips
  • If possible use a wide grip "V" bar for working chest. If a V bar is not available, parallel bars are fine. Dips are a good alternative to decline press and because of the stretch involved, also works the outer upper area of the pectorals.

  • If you lean back (you can't too much), you work your triceps so, For maximum pectorals workout, try to lean forward (just a little).

  • Again don't lock the elbow joint. I hope everyone knows how to do them correctly .

  • Go all the way down to get the maximum stretch.

Parallel dips

Parallel dips
  • This exercise builds strength and mass in the entire pectoral muscles as well as working the front deltoid.

  • Start with your arms extended and slowly lower yourself as far down as you can go.

  • The farther forward you lean the more you use your chest, so try bending your legs and crossing them at the ankles behind you.

  • Squeeze the pectorals at the top of the movement ensuring you're working them as hard as possible.
