Bench dips work the rear shoulders and triceps and are a great body weight exercise that can be done almost anywhere when a bench is available. It's quite easy to do and is great for beginners to start out building strength in the shoulders and arms.

Dips, Bench Steps:
Sit on the edge of a bench, with hands on the bench and feet on the floor.
|
Legs can be straight or you can have a slight bend in the knees.
|
Push off the edge of the bench with the hands, so that the hands and feet only are supporting the body weight.
|
From a position where the arms are straight holding the body off the floor, gradually bend at the elbows lowering the body towards the floor.
|
Lower the body down as far as comfortable, pause at the bottom then push back up to the start position.
|
Maintain a straight back throughout the movement and keep your head looking forwards.
