What is this machine?
Dippikone (Machine Dips) on kuntosalilaite, joka kuormittaa ensisijaisesti Chest.
Liikkeessä työskentelevät myös Triceps.
The exercise suits a beginner: the range of motion is guided and you can start light.
On a machine the range of motion is guided, which makes it safe to train alone — but the settings must be adjusted to your own body, or the movement will be felt in the wrong place.

This page tells you what the machine is. Step-by-step instructions, common mistakes and a video of the movement are in the Luio app — the video shows the range of motion that text cannot describe.
Open in the app⚠️ Most common mistake: Letting the elbows flare wide, which pulls tension off the triceps and stresses the front shoulders. Setting the seat too high so the elbows can't reach a full stretch, shortening the working range. Letting the stack drop fast at the top of each rep, removing the slow lowering phase. Hunching the shoulders forward under load instead of staying tall and proud through the chest.
💪 Where you should feel it: Mainly in the Chest. The Triceps assist.
