5. Operating Instructions
The dip bars allow for various bodyweight exercises, primarily dips, to strengthen your chest, triceps, and shoulders.
5.1 Performing Dips
- Starting Position: Stand between the dip bars. Grip each bar with an overhand grip, palms facing each other. Lift your feet off the ground, supporting your body weight with your arms. Keep your arms straight but not locked, and your shoulders down and back.
- Lowering Phase: Slowly lower your body by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your body. Lean slightly forward to target your chest, or keep your torso more upright to emphasize triceps. Lower until your shoulders are below your elbows, or as far as your flexibility allows without discomfort.
- Pushing Phase: Push back up to the starting position by extending your elbows. Focus on using your chest and triceps to lift your body.
- Breathing: Inhale as you lower your body, and exhale as you push back up.
