Assisted machine dips

Proper Position

• Adjust the assistance weight on the machine according to your strength level.
• Step onto the platform and position your knees on the assistance pads (or your feet, depending on the machine).
• Grab the parallel handles with a neutral grip (palms facing inward).
• Keep your elbows slightly bent, back straight, and shoulders relaxed.

Movement

• Slowly bend your elbows to lower your body, keeping your elbows pointing backward. Lower until your arms form about a 90-degree angle.
• Push through the handles to return to the starting position, contracting your triceps and chest.
• Maintain control throughout the movement to avoid jerky motions.
• Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Breathing

• Inhale as you lower yourself.
• Exhale as you push back up.
