PART #06
Triceps Dip
- REPS: 12-15
- SETS: 3
- REST BETWEEN SETS: 30 seconds
- NOTES:
- You might look at this gif and think my hands are in a weird position. This is intentional. Palms are facing out (fingertips facing away from the rest of my body.) This will keep your shoulders from internally rotating as you dip.
- Hands are right outside the thighs
- Keep your core tight and chest forward as you move up and down
- Keep your hips back, watch out for the pelvis swinging forward. Your tailbone should practically be brushing up against the bench.
AFTER LAST SET, GO DIRECTLY INTO...
