Triceps Dips

On parallel bars, lower until the elbows reach about 90 degrees and press back up, torso close to vertical.

How to do it

Setup

On parallel bars, arms locked, body vertical, legs quiet.

Steps

  1. Lower until the elbows reach about 90°.
  2. Keep the torso upright – leaning forward shifts to chest.
  3. Press back to full lockout.

Common mistakes

Sinking below 90° cold: depth is earned; the shoulders complain first. Shoulders rolling forward at the bottom: keep them set back and down. Kipping the legs: quiet strict dips.

Breathing

Inhale lowering, exhale on the press.
