Korean Dips
How to Do:
- Setup
Sit on top of a dip bar with your hands gripping the bar in a reverse grip (palms facing away from your body) beside your hips.
- Starting Position
Use your arms to support your body weight as you lift yourself off the bar. Your legs should hang naturally beneath you.
- Lowering Phase
Slowly dip your body down and underneath the bar, bending your elbows and allowing your shoulders to guide the motion. Keep control as you lower yourself to the bottom position.
- Ascending Phase
Push through your arms and shoulders to propel your body back upward and return to the starting sitting position on the bar.
- Repeat
Perform the desired number of repetitions, maintaining a smooth and controlled motion throughout.
Benefits:
Korean dips are a challenging exercise that targets the chest, shoulders, and triceps, with a unique emphasis on shoulder mobility and stability. The movement also engages the core for balance and control. This variation offers a dynamic way to build upper body strength while improving coordination and shoulder health.
