    With dips for the chest you need to have proper form also, straight up and down. Leaning forward will work the triceps more than chest.

    lovbyts, I believe it's the other way around. The more erect you are (and the closer your elbows are to your body), the more you will work the triceps; while the more you lean forward (and the farther away your elbows are to your body), the more you will work the chest.
