HOW TO DO TRICEPS DIPS ON FLOOR

TRICEPS DIPS ON FLOOR

Triceps dips on the floor are a versatile bodyweight exercise that primarily targets the triceps, with additional engagement of the chest and shoulders. This exercise is convenient as it can be performed anywhere without the need for equipment, making it an excellent choice for building upper body strength.

HOW TO DO:

  1. Starting Position: Sit on the floor with your knees bent and feet flat on the ground. Place your hands on the floor behind you, fingers facing forward.

  2. Lift Hips: Lift your hips off the ground, keeping your arms straight and your body supported by your hands and feet.

  3. Lowering Phase: Bend your elbows to lower your body towards the ground. Keep your shoulders down and your back straight. Ensure that your elbows point directly behind you rather than flaring out to the sides.

  4. Pause: Pause briefly at the bottom of the movement, just before your hips touch the ground.

  5. Pushing Phase: Push back up to the starting position by straightening your arms.

  6. Repetition: Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
