Upper Body Move of the Week: Dips

This is another oldie, but goodie!  Use your ottoman, couch, coffee table, or a chair, to do this excellent upper body exercise!  


  • With your back to the chair, place your hands shoulder-width apart, facing forward. 
  • Scoot your butt out until you are at a comfortable distance away.
  • Bend your arms until your elbows are at 90 degrees, and lower your body down. 
  • Using only your upper body, lift your body back up, extending your elbows.
  • Repeat.  
You can do dips with your legs straight out in front of you, knees bent, raising your knees, and many other ways!  Experiment, and figure out which position works best for you!
