The dips or repulsions to the parallel bars |
Dips are definitely one of the bodybuilding exercises at the most effective body weight to take muscle mass at the upper body and especially at the pectoral muscles (lower part) and triceps. This exercise requires having parallel bars or a Roman chair if possible adjustable in order to realize the movement.
How do I make dips to parallel bars?
Choose a device that allows you to have your arms extended with a gap slightly greater than the width of the shoulders in order to allow the body to move.
Stretch your arms without locking your elbows.
Slowly lower your body, releasing the muscles of your arms and shoulders slightly. Continue to descend until you feel the stretch at the shoulder joint.
If you use a neutral or supine plug, your elbows will point backwards. If you use the pronation, they will spread outward. With the bars forming an angle of 45 °, they will orient themselves in this direction.
When you are completely down, you are then truly at the starting position. Keep your elbows in place and slowly, raise your body. Keep pushing until your arms are stretched. Do not swing the body to help lift it.
At the top, inhale and blow slowly down to the lowest position. Then, inhale and hold your breath. When you have passed the most delicate point during the extension, exhale. Inhale again when your arms are stretched and repeat.

6 training tips
1-Many positions can be used for muscle development. For example, when you use the neutral grip with hands close to your body, you mainly work the triceps and the upper part of the pectorals. On the other hand, if the bars are wider, you will accentuate the work of the pectorals as a whole and force the backbones to intervene.
2-In general, the larger the grip, the more the dorsals, the lower part of the pectorals and the large rounds intervene. The narrower the grip, the older triceps and deltoids will work.
3-With angulation of the bars of 45 °, you get an excellent combination of all the muscular actions previously mentioned, which allows a good general development.
4-You can also get a strong burn on the triceps if you accentuate the descent phase, as well as a strong stress on the backs if you use a large gauge of the bars with an angle and a tilt down.
5-In most cases, the body weight will be sufficient, and this, more obviously if you make many sets with different outlets. If you use only one or two variants for specific reasons, you may need to consider working with a load, taking care not to reduce the amplitude.
6-Remember that to get maximum work from the triceps, you must stretch out your arms. To increase resistance, the best way is to suspend a load at the waist or to maintain a dumbbell between the legs.
