Weighted Triceps Dip On High Parallel Bars

Target
Triceps

High parallel bars allow a deeper dip than a standard set of dip bars, extending the range of motion and the stretch on the triceps and chest at the bottom before adding weight on top of that. It's a more demanding setup than a standard dip station for that reason alone, even before any load is added. Control the descent — the extra depth is exactly where a rushed rep turns into shoulder strain.

How to Do the Weighted Triceps Dip On High Parallel Bars

  1. Position yourself between two parallel bars with your hands gripping the bars and your arms fully extended.
  2. Bend your elbows and lower your body until your upper arms are parallel to the ground.
  3. Pause for a moment, then push through your palms to straighten your arms and return to the starting position.
  4. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
