#5 Triceps Dips
Apart from targetting the triceps, this exercise activates the shoulders, lats, and the pectoral muscles for a complete upper body workout.
Instructions:
Step 1: Grip the edge of a bench or a chair from the back while extending your legs such that the body rests on the heels. The hips should not be resting on the floor during the initial position of the exercise. Ensure that there is sufficient leverage on the chair or the bench to avoid tipping it over.
Step 2: Lower yourself by bending your elbows until the hips almost touch the floor.
Step 3: Hold for a moment and return to the initial position.
Perform the exercise for the recommended number of times.
Important tip: Place your feet on another chair or bench for a more challenging variation of the exercise.
