01 / Steps
How to do it
Get into the starting position of dips.
Lean your body back and try to slowly lower yourself until your elbows rest on the posts of the parallel bars.
From there, try to rise without losing the backward inclination and without using any swaying, impulse, or inertia.
If your parallel bars don't have posts, you can use the fists of a partner.
