Instructions

Setup

  1. Secure a resistance band across your parallel dip bars, ensuring it is sturdy and won't slip.

  2. Grasp the bars with a neutral grip, and place your knees or feet onto the resistance band to provide support.

Movement

  1. Begin in an upright position with your arms fully extended, supporting your body weight.

  2. Slowly lower your body by bending your elbows, keeping your core engaged and your shoulders back.

  3. Descend until your shoulders are slightly below your elbows, or until you feel a comfortable stretch in your chest or shoulders.

  4. Maintaining control, push through your palms to return to the starting position with your arms fully extended.

  5. Keep your head neutral and avoid shrugging your shoulders throughout the movement.
