Self-Assisted Straight Bar Dip Video Exercise Guide

The self-assisted straight bar dip is a variation of the straight bar dip and an exercise used to build the muscles of the triceps, chest, and shoulders.

If you’re unable to perform straight bar dips, going the self-assisted route is the way to go. By focusing on the eccentric portion of the straight bar dip and assisting yourself through the concentric portion, you’ll build the pre-requisite strength needed to progress to the full bodyweight variation.
