Weighted Dip

Posted: 28 Feb 2011 06:50 PM PST

If the usual dips you’ve been doing is too easy for you, add difficulty to this simple exercise by using weights attached to you. I do recommend you getting a dip belt.

Shoulder-width dips primarily train the triceps, with major synergists being the anterior deltoid, the pectoralis muscles (sternal, clavicular, and minor), and the rhomboid muscles of the back (in that order).

Wide arm training places additional emphasis on the pectoral muscles, similar in respect to the way a wide grip bench press would focus more on the pectorals and less on the triceps.
