According to wikipedia, dips mostly work the "triceps, with major synergists being the anterior deltoid, the pectoralis muscles (sternal, clavicular, and minor), and the rhomboid muscles of the back (in that order). "
Aren't those all upper body muscles too?
An imbalance in upper body muscles indicates more development in particular muscle groups in the upper body while neglecting the other upper body muscles that balance them. This can lead to posture problems and in the worst case injury.
