Dips
Every workout has its ups
and downs (groan...), but nothing has more than dips. That sentence
is also why I'm a bodybuilder and not a comedian. But being serious,
there are some advantages and disadvantages to dips, but it's
absolutely the best thing around for building mass in your triceps.
Another benefit of dips is
that they use multiple joints- wrists, elbows, and shoulders- and
this can strengthen them to allow you to push more weight in your
bench presses. Since this is essentially a bodyweight exercise, it's
never going to be as popular as anything else. The dip bar at the gym
won't be drawing a huge crowd, but another great thing is that you
can really do it anywhere. Set two chairs up in your home back to
back and dip in between them.
If you're not feeling the
burn, try adding weight to the movement. You can do this with the
chin up as well to get some extra muscle from a very simple exercise.
