Literally one of the best calisthenics short videos 🔥🔥 Too good man, it covers two great exercises and their variations as well as progressions. Doesn’t get better than this.
6 months ago.. I've done three dips.. it was the big mistake of my life! 😢 I still have terrible pain in my left shoulder and elbow! I was doing just great with only push-ups.. It wasn't a good idea trying dips. That's my experience only! But I am sure that dips are a great exercise.. you just have to be careful guys!
Go easy on range of motion at first. Shoulder mobilty tskes time to develop. Always go down slow and if it feels right go up explosively. Personally it feels wrong for me to do dips on parallel bars - gymnastic rings or bars on slight angle feel natural for me.
DB Pullovers really helped me getting rid of sternum pain. Although i did RTO support holds for months and saw good progress i only can credit Pullovers for the cure.
To focus on grip strength and shoulder/wrist stability, you can do push-ups balancing on the ends of rings, If your rings are wood, you may want to do them on a softer surface like carpet or a yoga mat so they don't get damaged. Most softer surfaces will make it a tad easier, but eg a squishy balance disk will be harder. To start, do planks, on your knees, or on an elevated surface until you have the wrist stability to lower yourself. To focus even more on your core, you can lift one ring, twist and reach for the ceiling, this will also make the stability of your standing wrist much more difficult, especially if you look away from that standing ring and towards the ceiling (I have never had the confidence to do so). WARNING: If you suddenly lose wrist stability & fall out of holding the ring on end, you are likely to injure yourself, esp your hands or wrists, so progress w/ caution.
Push-ups for some reason hurts my wrist. So although i can do them, i can't get through a full session without being uncomfortable. Dips however, once i was able to do them unassisted has been one of my go-to exercises. I can get 10 reps now, and i think once i hit about 15 I'll start doing them weighted. Fantastic exercise. It's my finisher for tri's, and it's also the only exercise i do for lower chest.
I use the Mentzer program, but only as a base. I do regular push ups with weights first and finish it off with weighted dips on the rings. Not necessarily in that order, just to put my body under enough 'failure ' pressure. Works awesome for me, and have great results for my likes. My goal is only, to get enough strength around my core an glutes, as I've an erupted disc in my lower back.
The fact is that you don't need weights to progress for lifetime. You can also progress by adding more reps. It also works in lifetime. you don't need to perform only 8-15 reps for bodybuilding. Any rep ranges can build muscle optimally if you train to failure or close to failure. By doing crazy high reps not only good for optimal bodybuilding, it also build more endurance. If you do an exercise in proper form (even in partial reps) you can't do that much rep than you think.
@@jamiel8288 It is in the case that if a person do low to moderate rep with heavy weights regularly switched to light weight with crazy high repetition immediately.They are not used to this training. It is because they don't have enough endurance to do this. But, if you do this regularly like you are progressing by adding reps like 1,2,3,5,10,15,16,18,20,28,30,50,070,80,100,etc..... You are getting used to this and you are gradually building endurance to perform this. We can build muscle with crazy high reps without fatiguing ourselves. Adding reps is like adding weights. Increasing volume or increasing load is the two best ways for lifetime progress.
@@dayneminBig fan of this approach too. Even if I’m aiming for a certain RIR, there’s no point in stopping at 10 just because that’s what I had planned. Feeling the exercise is a really important aspect of training.
@@DevourerSated yup as long as I'm over 30 seconds. Soon as you set a number the brain will trick you lol. Eyes closed not counting makes each rep the first rep.
Dips for me, full body weight and no feet to suport, and you can increase the range of motion so much that you can even start doing HEFESTO (If you are stron and flexible enought). PS: Dips are also way easier to add weights like +20 or + 40 Kg with a belt. DEEP ring dips with weights are the end master goal!
Bro you are the man thank you for the informative and genuinely knowledge seeking videos and I love the focus on alternative methods and routines. 💯💪✝️🇺🇲
Dips hit your chest less and front delts / tri's more given the body position + it's a more advanced move in general as you're lifting all of your bodyweight. One isn't necessarily better - both workouts compliment each other in my opinion.
The catch is it's a lot better to get stronger at dips since you're pushing your entire bodyweight from the very beginning and keep adding weight for years, you'll have enough strength to learn advance pushing movements.
Folks that didn't know about it yet, get into doing one arm divebomber push ups. You can keep getting jacked at home for years without anything else. The movement is THAT badass. 😊😊
For some reason I never really feel much engagement with my chest from dips and primarily just my triceps but with push ups I can feel my chest a lot. Everyone is different I guess
Dips and elevated pushups for me. Floor push-ups suck so much that it is not even funny. Elevated push-ups give you that nice stretch and dips are just the most awesome chest exercise in existence
I do weighted dips for triceps. Just don't do it like him leaning forward so much. Stay straight up as much as possible. And try keep your ellbows as near to your body as much as possible For me personally Arms > Pecs.
I never had any issue with dips when I was younger but now since i'm older. Doing dips causes discomfort on my elbows sometimes it causes inflamation. I wonder why.
@@mo4d-7 it’s not but you also don’t know how advanced he is. The more advanced you are, the harder it becomes to progress… 5kg in a month at a high level is normal
@@ekie7473 I think it depends on what you are looking for. If you feel your chest lags but your arms are good, I'd go with those push-ups. And if your arms lag but your chest is good, go with dips. Or just do both like me!
Yoooo sic way to load pushups in the dip station.😊 Never thought of hanging weight around the back with the dip belt, only thought of loading my backpack.
Dips hurt my wrist, is this because of my technique? Im overweight but also am able to do weighted dips with a 45lbs weight for sets of 3. should i just do them with my bodyweight or maybe try warming up my wrists? im really not sure. ive also seen people use straps on their wrist but im not sure how effective they are because ive never tried them.

You can reach a 2 plates bench without benching at all just by progressively overloading dips

@@mauri1996fs Alex Leonidas did a video a month ago named "Pullovers are magical". You should get your information there.
I've never seen costocondritis mentioned in a fitness video. Thank you, it's such a hard thing to accommodate in fitness
I love these short videos with these great explanations. Gold!
dips kill my shoulders no matter what. I decided to stop trying and I switched to other exercises
Good idea. Pushing through the pain will lead to rotator cuff damage.
Guess how I know. 🤨
Try lighter exercises focusing on different parts of your shoulder to get to the root of the problem. Could be a stability issue or just strength
Well presented guys 👍
Dips for me, love loading that end range stretch on the chest! Pleasure working with you daniel 💪🏼

I built a dip station from 2" water pipes, works great
Great Channel. Lots of important exercise info, in just a few minutes! Thanks Guys and Gals.
I did 120 dips in a single session once. Could've done more but I ran out of Doritos.
Decline deficit pushups with a slow eccentric and pause at the bottom. Absolute money.
Weighted dips on rings 💪🏼

Ring pushups 😆💪
Reading this is enough to make my chest burn.
Top tier exercise
....Archer PU on rings are even better :)
Great stuff. Yes.
Both are great for your body. If you incorporate different variations it's even better
Weighted dips have been a staple of my pushing workouts for years now, last session I managed a PR of 3 × +60kg at 90kg bodyweight, absolutely stoked
progressing weighted pushups in the 8-15 rep range us something I never considered, definitely going to add that, thanks

Crazy high rep ranges actually do inhibit growth because your body fatigues before muscular failure. Definitely good for endurance though!

Both. The best of both worlds (as an exercise) to me is a deficit divebomber pushups with standard push ups at the end.
Been watching fitness FAQ for years like 12 perhaps. Appreciate all the videos 😊

Rings for both
I'd say the end goal is proper form 1-arm pushups but i digress
Both are king - make both a staple and you will not regret it
OMFG THANK YOU!!! I will incorporate this onto my weekly workout 🎉
Folks that didn't know about it yet, get into doing one arm divebomber push ups. You can keep getting jacked at home for years without anything else. The movement is THAT badass. 😊😊
Pushups = 64% body weight
Dips = 100% body weight
But still push ups are great..
Yes! Very good! 😊😊😊❤❤❤
I just do both in same upper body day and im toast after. Its a game changer when you start adding weights.
I always thought dips are the next level of pushing exercise than push ups
I like your weighted push-up setup.
Bro jumpscared us
For some reason I never really feel much engagement with my chest from dips and primarily just my triceps but with push ups I can feel my chest a lot. Everyone is different I guess
BOTH, obviously! 😎💪👊⚔️
Awesome 🔥
This is so nice and so well educated progress
Why not both.

wow weighted push-ups is mind blowing.. never thougt you coins do that but makes so much sense
Can you speak about 1 set to failure vs 3 set workouts? I’ve seen a lot on “all you need is one set to failure”. What is your view on this?
Personally dips do way more for my chest muscles then my push ups who mainly target my triceps
Ooo I like how you use the dip belt for weighted push ups
Started calisthenics regularly by hanging for 5 mins as you advised❤
I do weighted dips for triceps. Just don't do it like him leaning forward so much. Stay straight up as much as possible. And try keep your ellbows as near to your body as much as possible
For me personally Arms > Pecs.
I feel like dips are much harder and make you stronger. Pretty sure i heard they're the only thing that hits all three heads of the triceps as well.
Single arm pushups are NOT the end goal. Planche pushups are 100% bodyweight
I prefer dips as I find myself sacrificing push-up form for numbers
I never had any issue with dips when I was younger but now since i'm older. Doing dips causes discomfort on my elbows sometimes it causes inflamation. I wonder why.
Dips are the best compound movement for the upper body although it takes me a month or more to increase 5 kg in weighted dips.
Imo decline deficit pushups are better
Where are you currently at in your progress for weighted dips? How many reps/weight?
A month ? That’s not a lot
@@mo4d-7 it’s not but you also don’t know how advanced he is. The more advanced you are, the harder it becomes to progress… 5kg in a month at a high level is normal

For now, I can only do a set with 4 dips. 4rep 3sets
Rings to fix shoulder pain? If I had any I'd try it. I've had this tingly sore feeling in my left shoulder, between the spine and scapula, for years.
they won’t just appear, you have to purchase them
Love all of them
Ring dips are my favorite
Do both
Now that's a good quality content, thaks guys 💪
The sideye scared me to my muscle's myofibrils
The advanced tiger bend elevated one arm pushup is gonna be the one💀
Difference between gym vs calisthenics,pls .... ?
I prefer both
So how do you do dips without wrecking your shoulders?
Go easy on ROM. Work it up over time. Also consider angled bars or gymnastic rings.
Planche push-ups* are the end goal
I wish I could do dips, they just hurt my shoulders so badly.
Thanks
ring di to ring push up to bar dip to regular push up. i did this last week and i felt my chest bigger for a short period time xD
Bro kinda looks like Sir Rowan Atkinson a.k.a Mr. Bean

I've tried dips but I get a really bad pain in the middle of my chest when I do them
Push up > < dips
When you do push ups you get a free plank exercise at the same time.
Pushups hit chest and triceps
Dips hit triceps (idk if it hits more)
*_wow it has differences I'm so amazed_*
