How to do it

Setup

Plate on a dip belt, forward lean, chin tucked.

Steps

  1. Lower to the chest stretch, elbows slightly out.
  2. Press up without losing the lean.
  3. Full lockout at the top.

Common mistakes

Weight before depth is owned: bodyweight range first. The belt swinging: settle it before the first rep. Lean dying under load: lighter, lean intact.

Breathing

Inhale lowering, exhale pressing.
