A upper arms exercise targeting the triceps, performed with body weight.
How to do triceps dips floor
Sit on the edge of a chair or bench with your hands next to your hips, fingers pointing forward.
Slide your butt off the front of the chair with your legs extended in front of you.
Straighten your arms, keeping a little bend in your elbows to keep tension on your triceps and off your elbow joints.
Slowly bend your elbows to lower your body toward the floor until your elbows are at about a 90-degree angle.
Once you reach the bottom of the movement, press down into the chair to straighten your elbows, returning to the starting position.
Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
