Triceps dips are a strength training exercise primarily targeting the triceps muscles located at the back of the upper arm. To perform this exercise, you typically use parallel bars or a sturdy bench. By lowering and raising your body using your arms, you engage the triceps, shoulders, and chest. To execute a triceps dip, start by gripping the bars or the edge of a bench with your hands shoulder-width apart. Lower your body by bending your elbows until your upper arms are parallel to the ground, then push back up to the starting position. This movement helps build upper body strength and muscle definition.
