Floor Tricep Dips

Pro Tip

If you want to increase your range of motion, start with your butt raised higher up.

How To

Sit on the ground with your knees bent, butt raised off the ground, and hands behind you, directly under your shoulders.
Exhale and allow your legs to extend, raising yourself up.
Continue to raise yourself until your arms are completely straight while keeping your butt up.
Inhale and bend your arms, lowering yourself until just before your butt makes contact with the ground, returning to the starting position.
