dip bars

What are dip bars?

Dip bars, also known as dip bars or dip poles, are special training equipment designed for bodyweight training. They consist of two parallel bars mounted at different heights and widths to enable different exercises. Dip bars are an essential tool for effective upper body and core training.

The dip station is a versatile fitness device that should not be missing in any home gym or professional fitness studio. With it, you can perform numerous exercises, strengthen your upper body muscles and ultimately take your body to a new fitness level.

Why is the dip station so popular?

The dip station allows for a variety of exercises that specifically target the chest, shoulder and triceps muscles . Using your own body weight as resistance, these muscles are intensively stressed, which can lead to impressive training results.

strength exercises on dip bars

1. Dips: Dips are one of the most basic exercises with the dip station. They primarily target the triceps muscles, but also help to tone the chest muscles. Dips are known for their high training effectiveness, as you need a huge amount of strength to move your own body weight correctly on the dip station.
2. Knee raises: By pulling your knees up, you work your abdominal muscles and strengthen your shoulders and arms at the same time. Alternatively, you can bend your knees or legs outwards to specifically target the side abdominal muscles.
3. Leg raises: This is a great exercise to tone the abdominal muscles and strengthen the lower back.
4. Push-Ups: By placing your hands on the dip station, you can perform a more intense version of push-ups that will put even more strain on your chest and shoulders.
