| Weighted Dips - Past 90 Degrees or No? Posted: 24 Mar 2021 05:06 PM PDT Hi all, Curious about what others think about dipping to 90 degrees or all the way down on stationary weighted dips. I dipped with 90+lbs attached to my armpits without problem. Guess I had the shoulder mobility. I also felt the full ROM would help prepare me for strict Muscle Ups. Al Kavadlo seems to dip to his armpits on parallel bar dips here. However, he probably does not load weight since he is a bodyweight purist. I know on ring dips gymnasts utilize the full ROM. But maybe my weighted dip will improve if I go just to 90 degrees instead of ATG like my weighted squat. On a related note, I have been trying to go ATG on weighted squats for years. Couldn't go past 250lbs with my 6' 2" frame. Went to just 90 degrees and was (obviously) able to increase to 315lbs on the first go. Less lower back pain too. However, I know folks that would argue ATG on squats is the way to go. Maybe for pistols. But on weighted squats I could never get rid of the butt wink sufficiently. Always lower back soreness eventually on ATG weighted squats. Thoughts? [link] [comments] |
