Assisted Dip

How to

Machine
  1. 1 Kneel on the pad, grip the bars, lean forward slightly.
  2. 2 Lower until shoulders are level with elbows.
  3. 3 Press back up to straight arms.

Tips

  • More counterweight takes more of your body weight off; reduce it as you get stronger.
  • Write the assistance setting in the exercise note so sessions compare.
  • Lean forward for the chest, stay upright for the triceps.

Common mistakes

  • Dropping fast because the pad catches you.
  • Letting the shoulders shrug up at the bottom.
  • Keeping the same assistance for months.
