The Reverse Dip is an effective bodyweight exercise targeting the triceps, shoulders, and chest. By leveraging your own body weight, this exercise also engages the core for stability, enhancing muscular strength and endurance. It’s ideal for building up upper body strength and improving your overall flexibility.

How to do it

  1. Start in a push-up position with your hands under your shoulders and feet together, ensuring your body forms a straight line from head to heels.
  2. Bend your elbows, lowering your body slightly while keeping your core engaged. Begin to shift your weight backward by bending at the hips and lifting your head and chest upward.
  3. Push through your palms to return to the starting position, maintaining a controlled movement throughout, ensuring your elbows are slightly bent at the top without locking them.
