Assisted Dip

Technique

How to perform Assisted Dip

1. Select the assistance setting and use the machine steps to reach the dip handles.
2. Grasp the handles, place one knee and then the other on the assistance pad, and establish a steady supported position.
3. Bend your elbows to lower between the handles through the range you can control.
4. Keep your torso steady rather than swinging to gain depth.
5. Press through the handles to straighten your elbows and return to the starting height.
6. Repeat with the same controlled path.
