Dips are one of the most effective upper-body pushing exercises. This triceps-focused variation uses a vertical torso and close elbow position to prioritize arm development while still building chest and core stability.
Instructions
- Start at the top of the dip with arms extended and body upright.
- Lower yourself by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your sides.
- Continue descending until your elbows form a 90-degree angle.
- Push through your palms to return to the top, straightening your arms.
- Repeat for the desired number of reps.
