Exercise Name: Parallel Assisted Dips
Equipment and/or Primary Target: Leg Lift Machine
Muscles Exercised: Chest, Triceps
Start by facing the machine. Grab onto the handle bars pointing away from the machine. Then lift yourself up using your arms and upper body. After holding yourself up, bend your elbows and lower your body while keeping your strength. Then immediately push yourself back up to starting position. You can also have someone spot you in which case you have the spotter hold your feet against their chest (Hold your foot loosely). You can push yourself up using your upper body and minor action with the feet for leverage. When done, lower yourself easily and safely so you don't break or stretch anything.
