8) Dips
The exercise works the lower area of the triceps exceptionally well.
The subject grabs the parallel bars and hoists him/herself up till the arms are perfectly straight. Staying as upright as possible he/she lowers him/herself using the triceps slowly till he/she reaches the bottom of the motion. Then he/she lifts him/herself up again to starting position.
Extra considerations:
- be careful not to lean forward during the exercise. You’ll turn it into a chest exercise.
- extra weights can be used strapped onto the waist.
