Dips are a bodyweight exercise that primarily targets the triceps, chest, and shoulders. To perform dips, position yourself between two parallel bars or use a dip station with both hands firmly gripping the bars. Begin with your arms straight and your body in a straight line, then lower your body until your arms form a 90-degree angle at the elbow. Make sure to keep your elbows tucked in and your shoulders down as you dip. Finally, press back up to the starting position, keeping your core engaged and your elbows slightly bent at the top. Dips can be modified for different fitness levels by adjusting the distance between the bars, the angle of your body, or adding additional weight to the exercise. Dips are an effective exercise for building strength in the triceps, chest, and shoulders, and can also help improve core stability and overall upper body fitness.
