It’s a good workout but I’m not going to do them again cause the pain I get in my chest I just did them for triceps but I found another workout for triceps and it works better for me.
I absolutely love you brother! Your positivity and energy are completely infectious. Usually a few RUclips videos are involved in my nightly wind down. Lol I can't include your videos in that process because I end up getting way too amped. So, here I am at 5 something on a Sunday morning, getting ready to go attack the day. Thank you for being such an integral part of starting my day off with positivity and just all around good energy. I am filled with gratitude because who you are and your willingness to share who you are with us. You are inspiring!
Something not mentioned here is that some peoples sternums do not actually tolerate dips. These are all helpful tips for people not getting sternum pain but for anyone watching and looking at the comments if your sternum (bone in the middle of your chest) hurts, try a shallower dip only to parellel, if that hurts. You cannot safely perform dips. Find an alternative.
Team grindy-teary-uppy-impingey shoulders represent! Thanks Brian for the tips. Will try to implement them. Great to see you collaborate with bigger and bigger names. The industry needs more positive people like you.
Just bought a pair of gymnastics rings because I‘m confined to a home gym. I see them in the background in a lot of your videos and was wondering if you have any pointers with ring dips and if adding weight to these is a smart idea?
With them being suspended from your rafters (I'm assuming), just keep an ear out for any structural damage. You should be okay, unless you and the weights total like 600 pounds or something. =P
GERGtheNERD they hang from a steel beam we use to hang engine blocks from so the structure shouldn’t be a problem but I got lingering shoulder/s injuries and from what I can tell, stability plays a big part
I could be very wrong, but it sounds like maybe there’s something going on with the hand placement, mobility or technique or where you are bringing your chest down to. Because you really shouldn’t have pain like that after a couple reps
Following your channel with hopes of solving costochondritis / Tietze's syndrome. Had this shit since August and tried rest, prescribed anti-inflammatory medicine, light training and rehab, hard training, chiropractor's but nothing seems to work. Seen pretty much no improvement at all. I used to train every day but got sick during the summer. Went back to the gym and did some light dips and something happened in the first set which caused immediate pain which never went away ever since. Getting all kinds of anxiety from this. My back is probably stiff and my posture bad but its just that I got it in connection with doing dips which makes me think something pop out of place or so. Also hade a surgery a few years ago around my sternum which might have created stiffness and scar tissue there aswell.. Please reach out if anyone has any help.
This the best dip technique video I’ve seen! Which is awesome because Dips are one of the greatest general pressing assistance Exercises(ohp or bench). Just ask Pat Casey (first guy to bench 600lb, and at a spelt 300lb he added 300 more lb and did dips)
Man I didn't know the chin/neck/shrug thing, was a thing. Took video of myself doing dips to see and wouldn't you know, I am guilty of the chin /neck/shrug thing. 🌈The more you know.🌈 Thanks for the advice.
Started to watch your vids, and now for me it's like: New training - new PR. Thanks for all your tips, Brian, you doing amazing job. Can you give some tips about squats at my home gym, if i don't have a rack, or something like that. At every squat session i need to first press that a little bit heavy barbell above my head, and then after i finish my squats i need to press it the same way again.. But, a front squats a lot easier at that point, but doing just a front squats that probably not that effective.. With love from Russia (Platonic) :)
Are you using a bench with rack for your squats? Many many years ago I did and I agree, front squats seemed easier, until you're rolling the center of gravity too much on your toes. Lower the pins and treat the bench like a box squat to rack and unrack, still walk away for the reps in between
You'll end up getting used to high bar but that pressing overhead isn't good for the shoulders, esp if the bar doesn't quite land in any shelf on your back...
@@LatimusChadimus Well, i have a kind of bench, but it's actually not for a press, it's for a core training, and max weight... something about 130kg. About my shoulders, yeah, that's true, so i just stopped doing squats with a barbel, and started to do it with a 20kg plate in my hands and 10kg backpack behind me. Of course, after that my biceps pumped as hell, but that's really cool way, just to make sure, that biceps are healthy. I don't have a rack, or some thing like that. But sometimes i using it for some help, to lift it not from the ground, but from a little bit of height Thank you for some tips!
Do a hip belt squat standing on two boxes or objects of the same height. Not a pure substitute for the barbell squat but a pretty good alternative. But if i was you i'd buy a set of heavy duty squat stands if i could.
@@garysellars8914As soon as i finish my studying and start making money, then i ll definitely buy a rack or maybe something like that. Until then i ll try to figure that out, because everything i have, that a bench for core training, barbel and 2 dumbbells. Kinda poor home gym, yeah, but atleast something. Thanks for a respond!
These tips have really helped with pain. I have used weighted dips for years, but these tips have taken my dips to the next level. Thanks, there's so much quality content on here. God bless.
"chains around the neck are better for selling protein powder" i laughed so hard at this some wee came out! So true Brian mate, love it! i don't get pain from doing dips but there's still some awesome tips that i'll use. thanks mate, keep up the good work. atb Tom from England.
Congratulations on the Table Talk podcast. Dave Tate is one of, if not the most, helpful and giving people in the fitness/lifting industry. The amount of knowledge that guy shares is incredible. I'm genuinely happy for you, man.
Thanks Brian I have a weight vest that I put on and do my dips with on parallel bars, what I was going to say how ever is I am going to stop bent over rows because my lower back gives me nothing but trouble, but I just bought some viking press handles and I will have to go with that and put more weight on the vest for dips , not sure what to do about my lower back pain , it is arthritic because I am 57 years old now , but have no intention of taking my foot off the accelerator pedal, that is not an option , I shall just find a way .
i wear my chains like a backpack: loop behind the neck, in front of shoulders and back behind my lower back again. longer lengths like figure 8 on it's side (infinity sign) with karabiner forming the cross behind mid back. way easier to put on and off, no danger to sensitive zone ;)
Alright guys, ive been seeing Brian under 200k subscribers for WAY to long. This channel will make you strong! Tell your friends, family, dogs, everyone!
Yes I notice I can do Dips on boxes/Flat sutfaces, not handles. It's so frustrating because I LOVE this exercise! Side Note: I've not watched Brians vids since his injury a while ago. I'd forgotten how good his vids are! 👏🏾
Brian Alsruhe you’re a beast Brian. Discovering your channel has been gamechanging in my gym/fitness experience. Thank you so very much, never change and always keep inspiring :)
One thing, I think it was Christian Thibaudeau who mentioned this, if you stick your legs out more kind of like an L-sit, it will shift your upper body to be in a position to hit your chest more. I find this to be true.
Awesome band tip Brian. Used to ring dip often, but whenever I don't so them, my technique and strength goes to crap. I like to ease into it. Plenty of reps, low intensity, higher frequency
I need to do weighted dips for it to be pain free. I guess the extra weight from my waist puts my shoulders in a better position that doesn't hurt. As soon as I do body weight dips my shoulders feel weird :/
Such a cool video Brian. I can only do about 6 full dips so also work on holding the bottom position isometrically for time. I can do it for around 40 seconds so now want to add weight. What length of chain is best? I see people threading it through a pool noodle so it doesn't dig into their back however i'd prefer to just use the chain if that's ok just like in the video. I bought a dip stand and apart from my olympic barbell i think it's the best piece of equipment i've ever owned.
9:51 was the best visual I've ever witnessed..... it's not much pain I feel but tendon snapping and sometimes I hear a pop, that's why I've switch from chest focus to triceps. Your triceps might enjoy an Impossible Dip
Have seen 2 different guys fracturing their sternum/clavicles doing dips in front of me. as a dips/chin guy,i gotta admit that they are not for everybody.anatomic differences are real on that.
Another tip for those who do heavy dips, have a closed chest. The moment your chest opens, the rep is lost. Awesome video Brian! My favorite fitness channel.
Lookin forward to ur workout with dave. Dave was nice enough to sign the elitefts belt that I ordered last week. I was so freakin stoked when I got it!
I know this video is about about dips buuttt.. i tried zercher carry the other day nd the bar was pressing against my ribcage and cartilage, after iwas done it felt like somebody hit me in the stomach. What could i do to ease this? @brianalsruhe

I didn’t get dip pain until I saw you with that 280 lbs around your hips. lol
But you did just now improve my technique.
Thanks for the post Sir!
👍🏼
“let’s go to the gym”
“awright , let’s dip”
Put your hand upon my hip. When I dip you dip we dip
Dips only hurt my ego...😁
Steve Hartkopf 😂😂 I feel this so bad haha
Chains around the neck
"That's better for selling protein."
Great 😂😂😂😂
I gave up dips because of shoulder pain. I shall try again.
With throttle on (more triceps) and elbows out cue, 50% of shoulder pain removed. With the right warm up it's doable.
It’s a good workout but I’m not going to do them again cause the pain I get in my chest I just did them for triceps but I found another workout for triceps and it works better for me.
@@exzesbackup2569 what pain are you getting? Going too deep?
SantomPh probably I got it at my center of my chest but that was a while back tho I don’t do them anymore I found another triceps workout
Dips are easier on my shoulders than bench press ..

I had that pain but overtime as i got stronger the pain stopped
I do dips on the rings and honestly they feel great! The first I couldn't do 5 in a row, now I can do 40kg
Cool, man! I'm still on 15-20kg range, but working my way up
How long does it take on the rings

With +3 plates, how do u avoid nut clinching and/or inner thigh pinching?
It's kinda funny to do a sumo cowboy waddle walk tho

@@myfriendben absolutely, my dude. Best course is probably to start weightless/light and see how it feels! Best of luck!
GERGtheNERD Cheers man!
In my experience ring dips are much more difficult then normal dips, might want to start with something like a ring pushup
What happens to me is that I do painlessly all the reps but once I get out of the parallels my left clavicle starts hurting for 3-4 seconds
I could be very wrong, but it sounds like maybe there’s something going on with the hand placement, mobility or technique or where you are bringing your chest down to. Because you really shouldn’t have pain like that after a couple reps
Love dips. Never had pain from them, but still several good tips here that I did not know. Great video.
Talk about a mindset and being motivated. First week of Brian's program I purchased and a bench PB on first brutal bench day??? What the heck
Haha my man!
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial technically second time through week one, impromptue holiday in between so started again. 15lb increase
All the best to your athletes in the upcoming comp. Hope to see some footage perhaps
Great job!

Great video, love dips! What do you think of ring dips? Interestingly, they don't bother my shoulders as much as bar dips.
Thank you very much from Rome, Italy, Sir. I had a sore point on my right shoulder because I was using the wrong grip. Now is going much much better.
Any one else use a ratchet strap and a piece of rope instead of a dip belt or chain
....or am I the only weirdo
William Murphy i use my pant belt for weighted dips

Was gonna perform dips and this popped up. Thanks, Brian. Love from Nepal. ❤❤
Alsruhe and Tate, can't wait!
thank you brian, this video pointed me to a couple easy tweaks I can make instantly in my ring dip form
Loved this video man! Weight dips was the number 1 exercise that transformed my upper body
I have just decided to get these back into my program, I suck at them which means , do them better and more! Thanks Brian !
Been using my slingshot for dips as well bench and it’s been a life saver
I thought the more you lean forward the safer is for the shoulders.
bench and dips cause me clavicle pain, is that an ac joint issue? weak mid back issue?
Thanks bro!
Thank you for all you do Brian! You help keep me so motivated!
A dog leash is a nice cheap DIY dip belt
Thanks God i found this video
Hate them, I just do decline bench and plenty of pressing and external rotation work. I take the weighted chin seriously but not the dip apparently
Do tricep dips still target the chest a lot
Grundy teary uppy position 🤣🤣
Fantastic review Brian!

Ring dips has helped me. Only difficult part balancing yourself.
I love dips! Especially the rings/TRX ones. They're way harder but IMO, way more beneficial. What do you think about them?
HELL YEAH BRIAN!!! Congrats on getting to be on elitefts podcast and lifting there! Excited for those videos.
Any reason for feeling a grinding in my sternum? I have a messed up shoulder but dips dont really bother it. Just my chest.
I stopped doing dips when the gym I've switched to got this really crappy dip station. Can't argue with commercial gyms, you get what you pay for.
Awesome band tip Brian. Used to ring dip often, but whenever I don't so them, my technique and strength goes to crap. I like to ease into it. Plenty of reps, low intensity, higher frequency
A 6 plate dip Amazing. Awesome video and excellant tips.

hey, Whenever i dip my inner chest hurts. Feels like bone hurt not muscle. So i avoid doing dips. I used to love them
When I did dips twice a week my bench and OHP steadily increased. When I got sick of doing them and stopped for 2 months both went down. Do the math!
dips are fricking amazing, wheter you do them for big 100 rep cluster set or singles
9:51 was the best visual I've ever witnessed..... it's not much pain I feel but tendon snapping and sometimes I hear a pop, that's why I've switch from chest focus to triceps. Your triceps might enjoy an Impossible Dip
First time I heard about the throttle on/off method and it’s AMAZING, thanks!!!
I tried Brian's front squat suggestion about using lifting straps to keep the bar in the front rack. Man that's so much easier on my hands and wrists.
Thank You. You have no idea how much this helped give me hope of someday being able to enjoy this exercise.
Have seen 2 different guys fracturing their sternum/clavicles doing dips in front of me. as a dips/chin guy,i gotta admit that they are not for everybody.anatomic differences are real on that.
Two of my favorite things! Table talks and Neversate! Awesome!
Extremely valuable video. Turning that throttle in, to focus more on the chest is a game changer :)
Thanks for such a great info. I have been always away from dip bar because of those pains
Thanks so much. I get shoulder pain during and after dips. I will definitely use these tips.
I was just researching on "How to do dips" for the past week and now this....
Brian are you spying?
Another tip for those who do heavy dips, have a closed chest. The moment your chest opens, the rep is lost. Awesome video Brian! My favorite fitness channel.
Lookin forward to ur workout with dave. Dave was nice enough to sign the elitefts belt that I ordered last week. I was so freakin stoked when I got it!
Going too deep was my problem all kinds of sternum and shoulder pain
Ho Ho holy crap I can’t wait to hear the table talk. I’ve been waiting for the day you worked with Dave Tate
I always thought retracting the scapula and down & back were the same thing
Definitely not brother, completely different
@@BrianAlsruheOfficial Ah what is the difference then because i've been retracting mine and pulling down as well so i'm confused
DUDE...COCAINE IS BAD...
I wonder if I will be able to dips with this new artificial shoulder.
We will know in a few months.
Yeah I gave up dips but you got me to do them about a month ago and it made a world of difference.
Make it dip make it dip make it dip make it dip
A pic of Nuts would illustrate those sensitive areas much better to those who dnt know what he meant 😂
Dave's podcast is great, so I'm looking forward to that one.
Never seem to worry my shoulders but my sternum starts to pop when i get stronger at them and start adding weight.
I know this video is about about dips buuttt.. i tried zercher carry the other day nd the bar was pressing against my ribcage and cartilage, after iwas done it felt like somebody hit me in the stomach. What could i do to ease this? @brianalsruhe
That’s what zercher carries do man. That’s why most people don’t do them.
I guess ill jus have to man up to do them then 👍thanx for replying
I've literally waited for this video since i first found Brian years ago on RUclips.
You call that a dip?
Hurt my lower neck doing dips: I now stuck my chin to my chest to prevent injury.
Have you ever used accomodating resistance for dips?
Go out, do something amamzing with your lives
I really appreciate these videos, I have learned LOTS.
I get bicep pain doing dips, I think it's from my shoulder being stretched behind me.
The group stuff will probably help you out a lot then
Brian Alsruhe the group stuff?
I think he means the"Grip stuff", not group stuff....
@@jtdog365 Yeah that makes sense. Will try it since I also get bicep pain, thanks for the clarification lol
@@7Rokumaru i was worried i was the only one with bicep pain doing dips. i get a similar type of pain doing squats in my hamstring.
Mr. Alsruhe please keep doing this kind of videos
Great tips for the dip,thanks. Can’t wait to see you on table talk!!!
This is just what I needed. Trying to work my way from 4 plates to 5 plates on the dips.
You’ve read my mind!! I was just searching this very topic the other day.
