Triceps Dip (Between Benches)
The bench dip with one hand on each of two parallel benches instead of both behind you; the body drops between them, legs straight, heels on the floor.
How to do it
Setup
Between two parallel benches, one hand on each at hip height, legs straight in front, heels on the floor.
Steps
- Bend the elbows and lower the hips between the benches.
- Stop when the upper arms are about level with the floor.
- Press back up until the arms are straight.
Common mistakes
Benches set too wide: hands just outside the hips, or the shoulders strain. Dropping too deep: stop with the upper arms level. Shoulders rolling forward at the bottom: chest up, blades back.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
