The bar dip is a great way to strengthen shoulders, chest and triceps and is often considered superior to the pushup as it involves moving your entire body weight.
It is also a great precursor to dips on the rings, which we shall look at next week.[/vc_column_text][us_separator show_line=”1″ line_width=”default”][vc_column_text]
