Exercises in Futility - How NOT to Do Dips 

Yes but then they can, “get, I can do twenty pull-ups” and actually believe because some fat dude who they paid a ton of money too, said it was correct.

Drexxler 1 So, in other words, the ultimate goal is to just do more reps... and sell your dignity

Thats what cross fit is all about showing off and ego

How to get tendinitis 101

Gotta do more half reps, risk your longevity and credibility to confuse the body. Right babe?!

Do it anyways!

inb4 roid rage :D

joseph flanagan lmfao😂😂

i bet....

joseph flanagan I think its more valuable for u to have a talk with the brother that's doing shit wrong. Teach him, working out is not only about muscles, is about moral and wealthness

Best line ever lol

the salmon swingy swanky manky pull up

I lost it when he said that since I just saw the crossfit "pullup" video right before this

glencannondr ..phil Jeremy

Yeah all ugly minus the huge cock....... so literally nothing to contribute 😂

So he got shit dip specialization

That's a massive OOF

"Less" you mean not at all successful brothet

who would even pay him for that?

well played sir

he can't even oil !

lmao shut up and take my like hahha

He would probably put brake fluid in the washer bottle or some shit

Nah man, they take themselves seriously, I keep seeing featherweight nerdlings at things with Crossfit shirts on at the University. One of them was teaching someone how to bench. He was bragging about his bench too!

No, of course not, it's just a lie the strongmen tell the young bodybuilders to scare them.

It is real. They have classes at the gym I go to

But why?

crossfit is not to build muscle like bodybuilding. every sport has its own goals and competitions ..... bodybuilding is bodybuilding , crossfit is a different competition. why are you so dicky about it.

Lol

Unless you're reading an old comic book depicting the wild west aloud, don't ask me why you should be doing such a thing, I'm just stating the law

Cult like come to mind

That's a mean thing to say about flat Earthers.

Realistically like to look would be better

He could know what he's talking about but not be able to practice it himself though. But no good way to prove it immediately , I guess. Don't trust trainers only based on what they look like either. They could have been trained by someone else, or just have good genetics and good random habits. If your trainer doesn't talk about diet and sleep on the first session, it's probably the case.

Or or don’t want to look like you

David Alagoa Well to be fair many experienced trainers in disciplines/sports are successful athletes who are old and past their prime. Don’t judge a trainers experience by how they look right now.

Mythrintia Exactly, the body breaks down and sometimes gurus just like to eat like shit because of how long they had strict diets. Trainers should be judged by what they have achieved

Nah, kipping handstand push-ups where they hit their heads on the floor/mat on every rep are the worst.

@@peteurpola8405 I was gonna be worried that they were going to lose braincells, but they do crossfit, they don't have any left to lose

Who's to blame, him? or the idiots that pay him? lol

the idiots, id do the same if I had time to take gym selfies and make no gains

Cy Lacy capitalism why not earn a few easy Bucks

Shit if I could make some money by teaching bullshit I’d probably do it.

I do that with pull ups but make my legs parallel

You can make anything a core workout if you actually engage your core. The thing is most people get lazy when doing isolations and just put themselves in an APT instead.

so why not do an l-sit dip then?

crossfit is not to build muscle like bodybuilding. every sport has its own goals and competitions ..... bodybuilding is bodybuilding , crossfit is a different competition. why are you so dicky about it.

Teik Lean He wasn't even talking about building muscle much here.

No but he could start his own cross fit gym and just start making up nonsense and call it grid 2.0

We should all start our own gyms and name them something really cool and, like buff n' stuff

Apparently it’s easier for you than the English language.

it's fucking bollocks... lets modify the exercise so it becomes easy and doesn't force any growth! it's fucking beyond retarded. i wish i was there so i could publicly embarrass him in front of everyone on all the dozens of reasons why dipping like that is a bad and backwards thinking idea!

yeah dude, weighted dips all the way.

crossfit is not to build muscle like bodybuilding. every sport has its own goals and competitions ..... bodybuilding is bodybuilding , crossfit is a different competition. why are you so dicky about it.

This is exactly how i fucked up my pec for a couple of months.

Totally inaccurate,with the right conditioning and form going past 90 degrees is totally fine as long as u know ur limits

I can go as low as my neck without undue pain. Have also done dips where i would make my body paralell with the ground at the bottom and bring my shoulders to the bar before bringing my self back up to a support, this was a great help in starting planche work, personally.

Thank you Finkel. And to anyone saying hes wrong do some simple google research

LOL you can not get strong in a joint, you can only fuck it up more. there are certain angles that are forced and un natural and cause excessive wear. Maybe you go look it up as its a known fact between real weight lifters

Your ability to spell and understand basic grammar sucks, so can I hate on you?

Jake McCoy Where did I make a mistake in grammar?

Jake McCoy The way you have it written makes a single independent clause followed by an incomplete sentence. I was still right the first time, because by putting "So" in the sentence I linked two clauses together.

crossfit is not to build muscle like bodybuilding. every sport has its own goals and competitions ..... bodybuilding is bodybuilding , crossfit is a different competition. why are you so dicky about it.

U r totally right.

Tell that to navy seals

Sykout just because navy seals do it doesn't mean it's correct

Radioactive Lemon just other than the most elite special forces in the world with a government funding is doing a compound workout wrong. If youre having problems doing dips, you either have the wrong form or your shoulders are weak af.

Robby Zendarski if youre injured already then obviously a lot of exercises would not be good for you. But if youre healthy as long as you dont push yourself too much or have bad form dips shouldnt be an issue

Veloxy my point is just because an elite military group does dips with bad form doesn't mean it's good. Take sit ups in the army for example, sit ups are bad for your back but the army has you do them anyway

Eric Hendrickson He said "simplistic".

Eric Hendrickson he also said does that feel licer...idiot

What was?

Wren Boy This is an old video.

I checked the upload date and it says today. Is it a re-upload?

Wren Boy Everything on this particular channel is a re-upload. That's why it's called 'Archive'...and *****, this is an old video. Most of Elgin's previosu videos were removed.

When has this been about "focusing something specific as much as possible" ? Here it's to be the most efficient (optimize speed/effort) so yup you got it: "it makes the exercise easier". And that doesn't mean crossfitters don't train on strict movements, strength and technique (which they do because even by doing these "easy" dips, you can't pile them if you don't have strength).

That's what it IS about. To get the best and safest results, you focus on making sure a given set of muscles are doing the work and are moving the way they're supposed to in a non-jerky, smooth fashion. Of course you still need strength to do those dips, you need strength to walk too, doesn't mean it's not vastly inferior and often dangerous to do some of the things CrossFit advocates. Good form and range of motion are important for reducing the risks of injuries, especially if you are working out for years on end. And they aren't being the most efficient. By making the exercise easier, it takes them several times longer to get any kind of muscle fatigue going (if the right muscles are even getting fatigued first...) meaning they are spending a lot more time for less effort. And it's irrelevant that they have exercises that focus on proper range of motion and the like, they still intersperse them with nonsense like this.

Again, no. The aim is to get done faster and easier with your dips so you can go on whatever else is on the workout. Crossfitters will still build strengh on strict dips anyway. Your paragraph about strength fatigue is absolutely non sense and you wouldn't write it if you weren't blindly spitting on crossfit, because you exactly DON'T want to reach fatigue. The aim is not to build muscle, or work particular muscles groups, but to go faster. And if you have the strength, you'll be faster while staying safe (like the first guys who tried). If you want to build strength, then go with whatever scaled version you want to get it done correctly (that's where what you write makes sense).

+Psykopate Easier means you won't work the muscle groups anywhere near as well within the same amount of time. That's just common sense. So that basically means they're half-assing everything. And no, it's not absolute nonsense. There are two main things you can train for (not including just general health where you exercise to keep a basic status quo and feel good, which is perfectly fine goal): strength or endurance. Crossfit is inferior in either. you keep harping on going faster as if that is the crux of the matter. It doesn't matter how strong you might be, bad form will get you injured. Speed might be a factor, but bad form while being strict is bad for you body as much as being fast. And stop claiming I am blindly spitting on Crossfit, that has nothing to do with it. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean they immediately come from a place of bias. That is a cop-out and you know it. I'm not accusing you of the inverse by claiming you're a fanboy, am I? So give me the same respect or shut the hell up.

Good, because the point again is NOT to work the muscle group. The aim is NOT to build muscle, it's NOT to build endurance either. The keyword was "blindly" because you don't want to understand what it's all about here. If during a competition you have a workout for example 5x(10 ring dips, 10 Clean&Jerk), you might wanna go fast while also saving your muscles. So you'll use this kind of dips because you can. I'm giving you the respect by being as explicative as possible, but you don't want to read. Like most of the comments in this thread

Absolutely. I'd love to show teach them the kipping dips at a 90 degree angle to the "coach".

Yeah I've noticed Crossfit and Yoga seems to be really good for womens physiques but makes guys look like shit
