Wide-Grip Chest Dip on High Parallel Bars

Expert Advice

Lean slightly forward during the dip to better target the chest muscles, and avoid going too low to prevent shoulder strain.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Grip the parallel bars with a wide grip and hoist yourself up to a starting position with your arms fully extended.
  2. Inhale and slowly lower your body by bending your elbows, leaning your torso slightly forward.
  3. Lower down until your shoulders are just below your elbows or you feel a stretch in your chest.
  4. Exhale and push yourself back up to the starting position by extending your elbows and contracting your chest.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
