How to perform

Grip a straight bar with hands shoulder-width apart, arms extended. Engage your core, keep your body straight. Lower yourself by bending your elbows until your shoulders are below your elbows. Press through your palms to return to the starting position. Maintain control; avoid swinging.

Tips

Keep elbows close to your body for tricep focus. Lower slowly and with control. Maintain stable shoulders. Inhale on the descent, exhale on the push. Use assistance bands or a dip machine if needed.
