How to do it

  1. 1

    Sit securely in a dip machine, select the weight and firmly grasp the handles.

  2. 2

    Now keep your elbows in at your sides in order to place emphasis on the triceps. The elbows should be bent at a 90 degree angle.

  3. 3

    As you contract the triceps, extend your arms downwards as you exhale. Tip: At the bottom of the movement, focus on keeping a little bend in your arms to keep tension on the triceps muscle.

  4. 4

    Now slowly let your arms come back up to the starting position as you inhale.

  5. 5

    Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
