Tricep Dip Machine

How to do it

  1. Sit in the machine with the back against the pad and grip the handles at shoulder height.
  2. Set the seat height so the handles align with the mid chest at the starting position.
  3. Brace the core and press the handles downward by straightening the arms.
  4. Lead with the elbows pointing backward, feeling the effort through the chest and triceps.
  5. Exhale during the press down and inhale while returning under control to the starting position.
  6. Stop the return once the elbows reach shoulder height, avoiding letting the weight stack drop suddenly.
