@@TRIIGGAVELLI Yes. My uncle once brought me his phone and said something was wrong. I checked it and it was the most bizarre thing ever; you press on something and then you are told what you are pressing. Keyboard shows up, you press B and it says you are pressing B but nothing shows up. You press on an app and it just reads the app name back to you. I wanted to switch it off, it told me I was pressing to switch off but it wouldn't shut down lmao. After a while it became the most nerve breaking event of my life and I was laughing hard out of control. Then I figured you had to press twice or hold it (don't remember which one) after you were told what you were pressing. I used the phone in this way (it was hard), checked the settings and realized it was blind mode. Suddenly it all made sense. I didn't even know such a mode existed.

Mike. Would agree on everything IF this had been called “tricep dips”. But chest dips are a different and merited exercise in their own right which you seem to discount. If you focus on chest you should lean forward, flair elbows and grip wider etc. Then it becomes chest priority and triceps secondary. For me chest dips are a fundamental chest builder and I’d favour them over tricep dips. You do acknowledge chest a bit I’m this video but you seem to be saying dips should predominantly be a tricep exercise. I disagree. There are two distinct versions of dips. Chest focused and tricep biased. I sill think you’re awesome though. Pretty much the first time I’ve disagreed with you on anything. PS full body 6 days a week at the moment. We probably disagree on that too... 😂

@@richardtrass I agree. I came here because I’m still working out from my apartment. It’s a lot easier to add weight to dips than pushups. I’ll do weighted dips for lower pecs and I’ll switch to a reverse grip when I do my feet elevated pushups to hit my upper pecs.

@gxtmfa

@@neilpollack3514 same, except I didn’t realize how much dips hit triceps vs pecs. I was relying almost exclusively on dips/ weighted dips for a few months before I realized something looked “off.” My chest didn’t look terrible, but my triceps got yoked while my chest just got “toned.”

Honestly the 8th tip(15:50) is the best tip I've heard till this day. Anyone that has tried weighted dips knows how unstable you feel when doing a set of 3/5 with heavy weight, you are basically focusing on moving the weight up and down, and how stable, safe and the exercise overall feels great in the 12-15 rep range, you feel the muscle, your form is great, minised chance of ingury! Salute to you, Mike.

Its like a set of 5 on squats, felt it in my soul alot 😂😂😂😂😂😂

The video I never knew I wanted but always needed. Big thanks for everything!

I felt that set in my soul. Great description of 5x5s.

This videos are absolutely gold, thanks you!

This series is gold it helped me so much

love the series, great clip!

Dr. Mike - I hope you could do a similar video dissecting the squat, addressing issues like "to sit down between the feet or to sit back", does it really matter whether you break first at the knees or at the hips or at both joints concurrently, etc. Such a complex movement, so many possibilities. Thank you for the informative videos

Love your videos, after training for close to 30 years I comento find out that I barely knew anything.

“Perseverate”! Not only am I my making my dips better, but my english as well. 🤙. This is also why I watch doctor Mike.

These are so good! Keep them coming mates

Ive never laughed more during a gym video than i did during point 6, just found this channel yesterday and i love it

Great information.I had to like and subscribe. All the way from South Africa, Soweto 🇿🇦

Thanks! great content and great series! I would like to see the face-pull in the series too

I am sure the chest is the prime mover in the dip.

I love this series.

These videos are AWESOME!

Thanks Mike and Charlie for this fantastic video on dips. Every time I see Charlie I am blown away by the size of his legs. Their huge! Charlie share some knowledge on your mindset and approach to when you train those tree trunk legs

Gotta appreciate these videos and even more dr Mike's humour 👌

Great video. Since getting heavier as I’ve got older it’s been much easier to make many of these mistakes, due to the generally high demand of this exercise. Excessive depth is definitely an error, like to feel that stretch but if I’m honest it’s actually omitting tension right at the bottom and not allowing the ascent. The ‘slip’ you mention here was perfect for the mind muscle connection in future training sessions. I’ll be on the lookout for this

This video was super helpful, gonna use it for my ring dips.

I can’t lie this video is the real deal literally 100% correct information

Thanks Dr., I have asked for it.

Very nice and helpful video thank you!

Great video!

Appreciate this video id do complete range hands right under or close to my armpits to complete lockout and id feel it in about the middle of my chest

Thank you 🙏 this really help💪

Like to hear a good refresher on my favorite exercise I’m 59 been doing regular and weighted dips for decades.

THANK YOU!!! I’ve been wondering why I was having pains in my elbows while doing dips but I don’t get elbow pain when I do bench press and I honestly think this is why I definitely went way too deep on my dips thank you!!!!

Just started dips today. More for strength than for looks, but it's still good to know why I felt my shoulders and not so much my triceps.

You’re awesome 👏🏻

I don't know if I watch your videos because its good to learn or its a god comedy. As always best.

9:11 "How many dips was that? add up all the area under the curve of movement." haha love the science/nerd jokes [hard to get for a lot of people.]

I lost it at 13:06 , and I think Charlie started cracking up there too! :D

Still a lifting noob and I'm definitely leaning forward too much. Can feel it a bit in my triceps but also a fair amount in my chest. I get to barely more than a 90 degree in my elbow (similar to in the video) so hopefully I can go lower once I'm not leaning as much. Thanks for the video as I've been wondering what I'm doing wrong as it seems too easy without really fatiguing my triceps.

Underrated exercise

Damn Doc Mike really do be passionate about dips 💪💪

“...then that’s your shit!” Such straight talk, love it!

I do regular dip half and quarters as a former gymnast, one thing I learned is never lock your arms up. You will fuck up your elbows. Stop slightly of a lockout.

Either you guys are getting bigger or that building is getting smaller. Great series, thanks as always.

How come i have'nt found this channel before now? WTF this information is so good

Just a simple: Thanks i always felt dips in the shoulders and they didn´t feel good at all - with the leaning back its a way diffrent thing :)

If I had to add something, I'd say it's important to engage your lats and fix your shoulder blades in position if you encounter shoulder troubles.

omg I love this

"Some of them were fuckin' deep.......some were not." -Mike Bros-raetel LOL. Love the imitation voices recently - keep up the great content! Very informative.

Good video

I totally use dips more for chest but I'll incorporate some tricep training to aftet this video. Good point about not going brutal heavy. I see no point of doing that specially since your shoulders can be in danger in that position

I LIKE MIKE.

I started doing dips recently with a bit of shoulder pain at first that resolved somehow when I started doing them more. Good tips. Do you think getting stronger doing dips will transfer to a bigger bench press? I'd speculate it would because there's a similar range of motion for the triceps. Thoughts?

I can only do band assisted but I do love doing them.

Mike is literally the coach I want to be. But with a masters not a phd lol

Me:" Did you feel it in your lats?" Dr. Mike: "Nah, I feel it in my soul a lot..."

love this content and as a bonus LMAOO bro this is hilarrious

Excellent and helpful video! I can personally vouch for what you said in the end; I do 10 sets of 20 free weight dips in between supersets of various angles on the bench press (incline to decline or visa versa to change it up), and if I want more pump, then I simply shorten the time between sets, or contrarily, If I’m reaching failure too soon towards the end, then I simply give a few extra moments (burn plus control is my key). For added toughness, add in sets of chest butterflies in between the benches and dips. (You’ll be a machine in no time!) I also always SQUEEZE the heck out of the tricep at the top of the motion, but now I’m also going to try to incorporate more slow burn control on the way down thanks to this video. Cheers!

Bruh I feel like youre listening to my workout convos. Every video has been related my workouts and convos I have in the gym lol

Legend has it Charlie is still doing dips to this day.

The combination of Charlie‘s facial expressions and Dr. Mike’s creepy coaches voice at 12:55 is pure comic gold 😂

Charlie Jeung! I remember him from Styleforum! What's up bro

No one can ever accuse this person of not being knowledgeable.

Do them on rings for extra pain.

Would be super interesting to see Dips for chest development. Somehow I always feel it way more in my chest than Trizeps.

Yes me too, I don’t know if it’s my proportions or technique but the chest is definitely the prime mover, and the stretch in the bottom is nasty. Great for triceps and shoulders but chest is the most stimulated

Thoughts on ring-dips vs. dips on handles?

Would you count tricep dips as part of your weekly chest volume? Or if executed correctly does the chest not assist enough to go towards its weekly volume?

fuck man you rock. I just finished a dip workout and this answered all my questions!

I like charlies smile 🤭

I use to go really deep with heavy weights and ended up injuring and f***ing up my shoulders. My left side of my shoulders has never been the same. I suggest to just go parallel or slightly below parallel.

How about a video on Bulgarian Split Squats?

Damn, I was always doing dips for the lower chest, not triceps

Any advice on shoulder blades - do you drop shoulder blades What about the scapula position should you retract

No matter what kind of form I try to use, I always feel dips much more in my front delts than in my triceps or chest. Any guesses as to why this might be?

I want the dips to do my chest more though, so is it a waste of time doing very deep dips, also if i cant do 8 reps is it better for muscle growth to do say 4 or 5 deep reps or 8 90degree reps ?

Seated rows would be a great

There is an awesome isotremic, hold the up position, body straigth and lean back, your triceps will burn...and well, if you look for triceps and not chest, I think the best advice is to dont do it hollow, dont obly retract the scapullas at the bottom but mantain it trough the whole movement
