Pick any exercise from the full library while a workout is running, not just the ones in its split. The new exercise's plan is seeded from the most recent log of that exercise, else the library's authored Defaults line, else a plain 3x10. Adds a searchable two-section picker sheet and a **Defaults:** bullet to all 47 library reference pages. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJDQQDA9QdP8zByg43H5v3

# Dip
|
||
|
||
The bodyweight press on parallel bars — lower until the shoulders reach
|
||
elbow depth, then press back to straight arms.
|
||
|
||
- **Category:** Main circuit
|
||
- **Type:** Bodyweight elbow extension (chest/triceps press)
|
||
- **Targets:** Triceps, chest, front delts
|
||
- **Prescription:** 3 × 6–12
|
||
- **Defaults:** 3 × 6 bodyweight
|
||
|
||
## Setup
|
||
|
||
Support yourself on the parallel bars with straight arms, shoulders
|
||
pressed down, slight forward lean, knees bent behind.
|
||
|
||
## Execution
|
||
|
||
1. Bend the elbows and lower until the upper arms reach parallel.
|
||
2. Keep the elbows tracking back, body leaning slightly forward.
|
||
3. Press back up to full lockout without the shoulders shrugging.
|
||
|
||
## Cues
|
||
|
||
- Shoulders stay down away from the ears at every depth.
|
||
- More forward lean hits chest; upright hits triceps.
|
||
- Depth to parallel — a shaky bottom inch isn't worth the shoulder.
|
||
|
||
## Common Mistakes
|
||
|
||
- Sinking the shoulders into the ears at the bottom.
|
||
- Flaring the elbows straight out.
|
||
- Bouncing out of the deep position.
|
||
|
||
## Progression
|
||
|
||
Use the assisted dip machine or bands until full-range reps are smooth;
|
||
then add reps, then hang weight from a belt.
