I religiously do weighted dips because a guy I hate told me never to do them.

lmao been here 3 years now. Fuck off Jannie not your board.

I fuckin activate my almonds bro. Just to prove my point.

Weighted dips fuckin rule.

I do then with 35kg for 8 reps
Then I do weighted pullups, 20kg for 8 reps
Then I repeat

I do them unweighted when I superset them with hammer curls. I should start doing them weighted again though. I just hate taking off the weight belt every time.

I literally do this but with the weights switched

a hearthy topkek to you good sir.

If you are younger than 25, the bones in your chest can get fucked up from dips or decline bench. You can get like shin splints in your sternum because its one of the last bones to develop.

Fuck you nigger I've been here for 10 years and there's literally nothing wrong with weighted dips. You're supposed to balance out shoulders and elbow extension as in every goddamn upper body push.

Weighted dips are literally a staple of the Oly weightlifting Chinese team because they're such a complete upper body exercise.

You're so goddamn dumb even thinking your little bit of Internet knowledge is worth jackshit IRL.

Just let him do them. Stick to your own goals. He will regret having fucked up shoulders later in life.

>use to do 3 plate weighted dips
>My favorite exercise by far
>Nothing gave me a better pump
>Went to deep one time
>Uncomfortable pain in sternum whenever I even try unweighted dips

Really fucking sucks I cant do dips anymore. Do not go deep boys.

where do you think you are, pal? this is 4channel, not Jow Forums

> he’s pretty scary
Yeah because he does weighted dips, you fucking tard

Dude wtf

yep

There is nothing wrong with weighted dips.

Just gotta pay attention to body and ensure that joints and tendon development keeps up with muscles.

Here's a logic problem for you...

I started at 195 lbs before getting in shape and cutting.
I would do dips at bodyweight.
I'm now 170lbs and do +45lb weighted dips and dropset to +25lbs weighted dips.

How is +25lb weighted dips at 170lbs fundamentally different than bodyweight dips at 195lb?

Wait does this mean I can still get wider shoulders if I'm 20?

Is he right?

Fuck you I've been here since 2001 #oldfag

He is right about almost everything in general

>Weighted dips
>Not RTO dips
Ngmi

I can only do with 6kg for 10 reps 5 sets

JUST

should i lower the reps and add more weight?

>Now u

Potentially, yeah.

Had this till I got a few mental cues:
1. Don't "overrotate" grip. I keep thumbs out, parallel to bars
2. Chest out/shoulders back. Helps engage serratus, keeping weight off sternum/rib joints
3. Don't go too deep
4. If you so much as feel discomfort in your sternum, stop for the day, revisit form next chest day

If you push through it, you can easily injure yourself to where you need 6 months off of dips.

How would i do this? Hang from a pullup bar with one arm while holding a dumbell in the other?

>taking advice from a bald nigger
>pretending to be bald nigger

Had this happen, but at baby weight comparatively. 6 months with absolutely no dips and my sternum was ready to start it up.

Weighted dips increases my bench press 1rm so much more than bench press itself. To me it's worth the risk

>do these for the first time
>someone breaks the belt at the gym the day after
Kind of upset. Was it you fag?

Has Papa Jeff addressed this exercise? I need his opinion

Absolute lie

>not watching every video

>Reminder that this is true

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Not likely. Your bones dont grow much but they still form. Your sternum finishes forming in your early 20's

been on Jow Forums since 2006 so whos really the newfag here?

> dumbbell exercise
> strap a dumbbell to your waist and do dips
I guess, he's not wrong, but I still feel being lied to.

Amazing how effective this was, if you think about it.

yes, that's exactly how you do it

Do your dips, fags. If you don’t meme out with your elbows higher than your head at the bottom of the rep, you’ll be fine. t. 3 years doing dips, recently did +180 lbs at 180 lbs body weight.

>retracting shoulder blades helps engaging serratus anterior which does protraction of the shoulder blades
nigga what.

Learn to read, mate

Based and spitepilled

For some and/or if you have bad form.

This, don’t go below parallel

Arnold believed that pullovers (laying or machine) stretched and expanded the rib cage. He was pretty adamant about it in his Encyclopedia, actually.

The sticky literally recommends weighted dips.

It's a meme newfag

>mfw i can't do dips because of a fucked shoulder
