Bodyweight Chest Workout Tips:
- Parallel Bar Dips are better than Bench Dips if you have access to them. We have chosen to go with Bench Dips in this bodyweight chest workout because we assume most people will be doing the workout at home.
- If you don't have a stability ball, a basketball or soccer ball will work well for the chest squeeze exercise. You can also press your palms together.
