Bench Dips
Target Muscle: Triceps
Preparation
Sit on inside of one of two benches placed parallel, slightly less than leg’s length away. Place hands on edge of bench, straighten arms, slide rear end off of bench, and position heels on adjacent bench with legs straight.
Execution
Lower body by bending arms until slight stretch is felt in chest or shoulder, or rear end touches floor. Raise body and repeat.
Comments
Bench height should allow for full range of motion.
To make Easier you can place heels on the floor instead of up on another bench.
To make Harder you can place weight on you lap to increase resistance.
