How to do the Korean Dip#

- Lean your torso forward slightly to place more emphasis on the chest.
- Bend your elbows and lower your body under control until your upper arms are about parallel to the floor or you reach a comfortable depth.
- Press back up through your palms to return to near arm extension.
- Maintain a tight core and keep the shoulders down and back throughout each rep.
