you are genuinely the saver of so many sternums.... not many people on youtube really be this specific on how to actually do the dip correctly. tysm

[@pancakespushups4318]

Thanks man. This was solid. Gonna take this and implement onto my dips.

[@bekakhutchua3527]

All your videos are really useful and helpful. Good job man

[@tajjohal2841]

This was a great bit of advice. I feel a lot safer doing dips like this. Thanks!

[@Tualeklenklam]

Your video really help me a lot ❤

[@Jeff_123]

So always being depressed is a good thing? Ok my jokes are crap

[@TysonE]

Awesome, thanks Micha!

[@mikeb_ktm]

Awesome stuff! Thanks!

[@khamzarauan1132]

Thank you so much for these videos! Would you consider making a similar video with ring dips?

[@FluksWorkouts]

Great video Micha!

[@Sunesha]

I really like the breakdown. It is rare for Calisthenics moves 👍 subscribed hope for more breakdown

[@DevinsCalisthenics]

Great advice, thank you so much, never realized I was losing shoulder depression by going too far into the ROM

[@ti4gomelo77]

Perfect timing!! Tomorrow first thing in the morning is weighted dips ahah

[@lukatodoo]

very helpful thanks Micha

[@jack8998]

Yeah. Subscribed.

[@Monastirski]

Thanks a lot for the tipps

[@franciskimneri1445]

Thank you brother

[@SimkeBarz]

So many useful informations here 👏👏

[@denizural5390]

Great explanation

[@Lucaslol9999]

Very good video.

[@j.l.5966]

Ahhh, so it’s scapula depressed only. I was treating it like a bench press and doing both scapula depressed and retracted which caused me to lose tension at the bottom during heavy weights (80% 1 rep max).

[@davidetre]

Some others You tubers still say so

[@benjaminwetscher9614]

[@oooBoEoNooo]

@Micha Schulz: When it comes to chest exercises and back exercises in general, should the shoulder blades slide freely during the movement or should you keep them fixed (as is so often preached)?

[@MichaSchulz]

The need to move to a certain degree for sure!

[@quarterming3996]

Hi Micha, does this proposed method mean you have to round your upper back, and would this cause internal rotation of the shoulders? Is there a way to stop this from occurring when performing a dip, to make it as safe as possible? thank you!

[@MichaSchulz]

Yes you round your upper back a bit. And during all dip techniques you need shoulder internal rotation. There is nothing bad about it

[@Baddeal]

I feel like leaning forward would also help with planche push-ups.

[@MichaSchulz]

There it would create a bad form though as you loose your horizontal alignment.

[@shabelijsg2615]

good timing for me 🤣

[@emmanuelbenitez9628]

Hi coach! Lately i've been studying your videos, and after 1 year of training and decent progress, you still teach me a lot 🙏🏼 one question, dips have transferability to handstand push ups?

[@MichaSchulz]

Yes they have

[@jonasrih]

Where can I purchase those dips bars you used in this video? Great tips btw

[@MichaSchulz]

I had them custom made for me by a friend back in the days.

[@jdogvv]

So basically keep the scapula depressed throughout the whole movement?

[@JorgeReyes-bo7uc]

Can you film yourself doing it both ways but showing your back, scapulas? I think it could help to understand. Thanks

[@MichaSchulz]

As I won’t upload this video again, maybe formulate it as a question what you don’t understand so I can help 👍🏻

[@JorgeReyes-bo7uc]

@@MichaSchulz the thing about block the scaps for going all the way retraction while you are descending into the dip

[@simplycalisthenics1412]

Would dips be a horizontal push?

[@MAGNOZUBIRI]

Decline push

[@sanaladam5540]

Do you think extend shoulder too much in dips is too problematic? Like 45 degree depth

[@wallesdrop3026]

depends. if you are prepared

[@paulchristie3306]

Is it best to do weighted dips once a week or more often ?

[@MichaSchulz]

I dip 3x

[@theamazingofhumanbody3847]

Btw what about the scapula? Scapula protacation?

[@MichaSchulz]

on the way down, yes!

[@deedd1440]

What are weighted dips variation except the straight bar one?

[@MichaSchulz]

ring dips, paused dips, dips against resistance bands, slingshot dips

[@HARDIRONXMV]

Gilt die Technik genauso für Dips an den Ringen? :)

[@MichaSchulz]

Prinzipiell ja. Bei sehr leichten loads ist es aber nicht ganz so essentiell

[@Against_Gravity]

By losing the chest you mean avoiding anterior scapular tilt in the bottom position? In other words: don't let the pec minor 'win' the battle?

[@MichaSchulz]

Not really, it’s much simpler. You just want to keep the shoulder depressed and the shoulder extension limited

[@georgi980]

If our goal is not maximum performance is the stretch in the chest an improper form?

[@MichaSchulz]

Wouldn’t generalize this

[@georgi980]

@@MichaSchulz wdym by that?

[@mubarak.b]

I did 2 plates for 3x4 and I felt more sore than usual, I know now my form was totally wrong.

[@wallesdrop3026]

how much kg is one plate?

[@paulchristie3306]

One plate is 20 kgs (44lbs).

[@wallesdrop3026]

@@paulchristie3306 thank you

[@nomadicstrength]

I thought it was pronounced "Meesha?"

[@HP-zv7bz]

So you shouldn’t retract your scapular?

[@MichaSchulz]

Not on the way down if possible

[@Eline_Meijer]

Pure gold

[@lucaaa509]

I don t think it is the perfect form: the chest is way stronger than triceps and shoulder, i would perform them depressed obviously, but without closing the body at the bottom but trying to open it and use the chest, in a neutral position

[@MichaSchulz]

Then you won't hit necessary competition depth

[@lucaaa509]

@@MichaSchulz why not? You can kerp your chest in neutral and go little below parallel

[@lucaaa509]

When you perform dip you go down “closed” and then you open to use the chest: why not going down with the same position as you go up?your body is fixed in that position and you don t risk to open too much loosing tension

[@MichaSchulz]

This would result in more weight ROM, less stable shoulders as you need more elevation to achieve the same depth

[@lucaaa509]

@@MichaSchulz yes you have more weight rom, but shoulders are still stable, you just lean a bit forward to have forearms peroendicular to the ground
