Thread: Dips for Chest & Dips for Tricep

Or for that matter should elbows be out or tucked in?

More vertical = more trieps

More horizontal = more chest

Both will hit chest/tris/shoulders

^^^^and no need to lock out the arms fully for chest dips but make sure you go down to parallel

for triceps dips lock out the arms fully

Elbows in (Similar to CGBP if you think about it)

And go deeper to hit the chest even more

elbows out will hit chest more, elbows in will hit tricep more. More important is the angle of your body though...

Just do them however feels the most comfortable and get very strong on them IMO.

i always do dips with my nachos and cheese

I've started holding a 15 kg dumbell between my legs doing dips now, definitely feeling the benefit.
