Bench Dips Using Swissball



This variation on the classic bench dip works not only the triceps, lats and lateral aspect of the pecs, but also brings proprioception (your bodies awareness of where it is in space) and core muscles into play. Use a bench and a swissball for the exercise. Sit on the bench and position the ball under the feet. Slide forward off the bench so that your behind and legs are hanging off the bench. Lower yourself until your arms are at 90 degrees. Return to the start position. Do this in sets of 8 to 12 reps.
