Weighted Dips are King #dips #physique #shredded

I recently found dips. Not weighted yet because I'm not strong enough to add it but it's hitting parts of me that the bench has never even touched. Very cool exercise.

I keep plateauing on bench pressing movements. But when I switched to weighted dips, I was easily able to progress in strength adding 5lb every week.

Even mentzer said dips are the squat of the upper body

Honestly you can build your whole upper body simply by doing weighted dips and pull ups. Ghe muscle groups that should be trained individually and dont get targeted by these 2 exercises are forearms, lower back, side delts, upper chest. Dont worry about the rest :)

i went for a 45kg pr today, 8 months of training and 16 years old.

I did 40kg which was a pr then tried 45kg. I almost completed it, but i pushed so hard something poked out of my chest. Im pretty sure it was my manubrium or some other bone in that area.

Had trouble breathing and it hurt like a bitch for like 2 hours.


At first i shit my pants and had to end the set cause i thought it was my heart that popped oit, cause it felt like it.


Dont ego lift on weighted dips, i did it cause some people said i couldn’t do it

Dips is the only exercise in gym that feels awful for me, particularly in elbows and shoulder joints. But its good for muscles, so sure you should do it if it feels comfortable for you

Watch out and be careful with that exercise. It tears your shoulder joints up bad. You won’t feel it until you’re about 44-45 years old. It used to be one of my favorite exercises and I was really good at them and strong at them. I was doing 5x5 with 3 plates at 145lbs body weight. When I was 17-18 years old. I’m 44 now and I have arthritis and bone spurs in both shoulders. Just don’t ego lift with dips. Just use body weight and go to failure.

It is extremely dangerous to go full ROM as shown. Shoulders are an inch from betrayal here. Be careful mates.
