How to do assisted dips

Coach's Tips

Using a machine makes this exercise easier, allowing you to effectively focus on your chest compared to typical dips.

Start Position

1. Position yourself in front of the assisted dip machine with your feet shoulder-width apart.

2. Place your hands on the machine's handles and press down to lift your body off the ground.

3. Keep your body aligned in a straight line, maintaining a lifted head and chest.

Proper Form

1. Gradually lower your body toward the ground, bending at the elbows.

2. Continue lowering until your elbows form a 90-degree angle.

3. Return to the starting position by pushing upwards, straightening your arms.

Breathing Technique

1. Inhale deeply as you lower your body.

2. Exhale as you push back up.

Precautions

1. Ensure your back and neck remain straight throughout the movement.

2. Avoid locking your elbows at the peak of the exercise.

3. Do not excessively lower your body to prevent potential injury.
