TRX Self-Assisted Triceps Dip
The upright triceps dip in TRX straps with the legs on the floor taking part of the load; a step before the full version.
How to do it
Setup
Between the handles, straps short, hands by the hips, arms straight, knees or feet on the floor.
Steps
- Lower by bending the elbows straight back, torso upright.
- Let the legs help only as much as each rep needs.
- Press to straight arms, handles by the hips.
Common mistakes
Handles drifting forward: keep them by the hips. Leaning forward: that shifts the dip to the chest; stay upright. Legs doing the work: move weight onto the hands as you get stronger.
Breathing
Inhale lowering, exhale pressing.
