Bench Triceps Dip Instructions

  1. Position yourself on a bench, facing away from it, with your hands gripping the edge of the bench, fingers pointing forward.
  2. Place your feet flat on the floor, hip-width apart, knees bent at a 90-degree angle.
  3. Lower your body by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your sides, until your upper arms are parallel to the floor.
  4. Pause briefly, then push through your hands to straighten your arms and return to the starting position.
  5. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.

Bench Triceps Dip Tips

  1. Position your hands shoulder-width apart on the edge of the bench, fingers facing forward.
  2. Keep your legs extended in front of you, feet flat on the floor, and maintain a slight bend in your knees.
  3. Lower your body by bending your elbows, ensuring they point straight back, not out to the sides.
  4. Engage your triceps by focusing on pushing through your palms and squeezing your triceps at the top of the movement.
  5. Avoid locking your elbows at the top to maintain tension on your triceps throughout the exercise.
  6. Control the movement by lowering yourself until your upper arms are parallel to the floor.
  7. Remember to breathe steadily throughout the exercise, exhaling as you push yourself up.
