Dips...

[Sebass67]

How deep do you go? Why?

 

[BodybuildingUniverse]

I personally would no longer go any deeper than when my arms hit a 90 degree angle when using any extra weight. Tore mine in the bottom of a deep dip with 100 pounds on. GREAT exercise but be careful

i usually go till elbows are 90 degrees......It doesnt hurt
my shoulders as much as if I were doing them deep

 

[from zero]

90 degrees.

I go rock bottom, but I try to stay upright so stress is more on triceps

I only use bodyweight at present and concentrate more on exploisveness and speed on the way up.

I go to where upper arm is parallel to the floor because that's when my knees hit the floor. I do my dips on sawhorses.

Alright...well i guess i'll just stick with my technique then...going to 90...

Thanks guys

I go to 90 as well...anyone feel any discomfort around their collerbone area when doing them?

Yes. I used to go too deep and aggravated my shoulders a little. I have trouble staying upright even though my triceps are stronger.

Beyond 90 - I go down beyond it to the point that they rest.
