How To: Weighted Dip

[undeadarsenal]

yo scott, could you start including things people do wrong on the particular exercises as well as what body parts the exercise should work. That would be extremely helpful, thanks.

[M747202172763]

This dude was alot different before he started using steroids. Even his attitude went from calm to a bit more agressive and impulsive. I noticed this by watching his old and newer videos

[MultiMan120]

Do I have to do this workout with my shirt off?

[thunderssound]

hey gay stop working with out some clothes

ok

its not good for your ass

[jkvv2006]

wear a shirt

[freerider4316]

@jkvv2006 You jealous brah?

[FUCKTHIS360]

Bro TELL ME WHT U USEING?!!!!!!!!!

[Neosethsmetal]

fuckin cracker

[atlaswingpasaway]

i know it burns both triceps and chest, but i havent gotten to 45 lbs weights yet.

its fun to do too.

[biglorenz]

and thats help for triceps, chest or what???

[TheMll3nz]

ok im defenantly gonna use this strategy to try and get rid of my stupid pigeon chest>:(

[AndyHarglesis]

You do roids. And try going lower.

[PakhtunSupremacist]

SatansLolipop, Try to keep your left arm tucked in at all times. I bet it flares out on u compared to your right. Also the dips will work your chest too. F u wanna minimize chest then don't lean forward too much. The best thing would b is to get off the weighted dips n do body weight only until u get the hang of it.

[MichielTube1]

Thanks bro

[Latissimus65]

Hey dudes, check out my 3 and 4 plate weighted dips @ 164.5lb bodyweight

[SatansLollipop]

hey scott, I did this and the sides of my chest ache, I only want it to work triceps so I guess its a form error on my part ? and also, how do you prevent your stronger arm taking most of the strain? My right arm automatically takes all the pressure and feels more worked than the left at the end of my workout.

Thanks!

[ChocolatePoop1301]

Scott, I am in a phase of 1-3 reps and I need about 3 plates on the belt. Any tips? This is kind challenging. Should I do close-grip bench instead?

[superrubiksman]

@ChocolatePoop1301 keep adding plates

[1980sbrawl]

well weighted dips help me bench more?

[IronIsMyLife]

This is by far my most favourite chest exercise, unfortunately no gym has this belt so you have to buy your own. I bought mine for about $40-50.

[MastahMich]

@IronIsMyLife

It's more tricep tho.



[valgez1]

I should say that weighted dips are far greater than Benching. (Some may disagree with this :-)) ). I'll put it this way: after Benching i feel like an elephant, after weighted dips i feel like a tiger - more muscles are involved, closed chain exrs - people if you don't do it - DO IT - you'll be amazed what it does to your body. Just don't forget that it's NOT triceps exrs. Tense your whole body - chest, abs, back, even legs - you'll get an "Animal strength" feeling in your body.

[AwestaKhalid]

There needs to be more range of motion. 90 degress is not sufficient in my opinion.

[mcdeeeeez]

@AwestaKhalid shut up pussy i bench more than you squat

[AwestaKhalid]

@mcdeeeeez u mad cuz I don't like your boyfriend's videos? Seems like your stalking his vids and talking shit to everyone who talks bad about him.

[andersmusician]

proper technique

[crotchrockett004]

i have chains for benching and i really wanna take them to the gym... i wonder what they will think at my 24 hour fitness xP

hahahaha

[Antwon2718]

Scott, you're awesome! In fact, it because of you that i go to the gym every day CONSISTENTLY. Don't stop what you're doing, because It's reaching out to a lot of people. I'm a firm believer that learning both proper eating and exercising habits can prevent millions of deaths we see annually because of heart disease, diabetes, strokes, etc. You inspire me. Keep it up!

[valgez1]

@Antwon2718 Not only heart diseases, diabetes, strokes, etc... Common cold and viruses go away in 2-3 days, instead of 1-2 weeks.

[chrisdann92]

get a tan

[JayRaeMEdina]

Scott, do you have a video for lower chest ?

[e1g3r]

"As always, more good stuff coming soon." Your the man Scott! Thanks!

[nofear2485]

scott, my gym does not have that belt. any help?

[ScottHermanFitness]

@nofear2485 you could purchase one at the store and bring it on arm day :)

[nofear2485]

@ScottHermanFitness ohh ok. thanks scott luv u

[robboultimate]

@ScottHermanFitness SCOTT dont you Hate being Stronger then you LOOK ? :)

[AlexthePanda]

Hopefully this will help my form. Not strong enough to add weights yet. But the crotch thrust was fun.

[coolboy065]

awsm!

[ScottHermanFitness]

@coolboy065 thanks coolboy!!

[samdrum08]

will this hit the chest?

[MickeeM91]

@samdrum08 Yes it will, however you have to lean forward to hit the chest. Keeping body straight works the triceps more.

[samdrum08]

@MickeeM91 Tried this a while ago. Was awesome. Thanks!

[whysohighcloud9]

could you got on a diet that makes you look more cut an RIPPED up_OILED up_JAMAICAN under the sun to give us an example of how your meal plans work.

id suggest what i call a caveman diet: ((what u can eat below))

tuna or grilled chicken; raw fish; quinoa; hard boiled eggs; raw vegetables and fruit; daily supplement. (*oatmeal in the morning*)

do a lot of cardio to get that 5% to -5% and take fish oil to replace that bad fat w/ good

THUMBSS UPP if you want scott to look cut even in the light

[amzmanku]

I will give you a 1,000,000 dollars if you give me your body!

[santhorhongwei]

@amzmanku then you will have to die to have ronnie's body

[XxSkiburxX]

scott, just wanted to know, how long have you been working out for now?

[The1DrShade]

Do we have to thrust back & forth lmao

[hockeymaster12345]

I've been going gym 2-3months and I've not been improving for the last few weeks what should I do?

[Lrdvltr]

@hockeymaster12345 You have plateued. You need to confuse your muscles by doing a different routine that targets the same muscles.

[hockeymaster12345]

@Lrdvltr cheers bud

[xELITExRAGEX]

@hockeymaster12345 change up your workout..add new exercises

[hockeymaster12345]

@xELITExRAGEX cheers bud

[Lrdvltr]

@hockeymaster12345 Anytime mate.

[10Dante4]

yup now i feel bad cause i cant do dips even without the weights

[mcds87]

You always stay the same size whats with that ?

[lobitotavito]

those 6 dislikes are 6 fat guys lying on their couches eating nachos and scratching their asses

[alvinleong2]

arnold used to do this in his days

cool to see u doing it too!!!!

[FreezeXill]

Hey scott! Could you make a video on how to fix a uneven abs?

[kadhimA1]

sometimes i feel alot of stress on my shoulders, what am i doing wrong?

[FiTNESSisKEY]

Scott what do you think is more affective drop set training or training till failure

[yashatono]

@FiTNESSisKEY

when doing drop set you're supposed to drop only when you fail, and then repeat til failure again with the lower weights. a drop set is a double failure, and should theoretically be more effective.

[THEHERMINITEARMY]

Are you going to be making any resistance band workouts anytime soon.

[Blizzard500]

HEY SCOTT, I THINK I SAW YOUR PICTURE SOMEWHERE IN A BOOK! THE MEN'S HEALTH FITNESS BOOK AND YOU WERE THEIR FITNESS MODEL FOR CHEST EXERCISES, IS THAT YOU?

[benfoley83]

nice triceps, looks like a tornado

[ScottHermanFitness]

@benfoley83 thats because.... it is!! lolol.. thanks man.. bets tricep compliment I have ever gotten :)

[benfoley83]

nice triceps, looks like a tornado

[Axethrash]

Scott you're such a beast!!!!

[grasseline]

Have you ever tried still ring workouts?

[LAKallday7]

You have soo many ab routines I'm barely starting with abs and i was wondering which ab workout you recommend.. Appreciate the vids :)

[amg703]

i Searched up weighed dip after watching dr dre's new video :p

[RoyalCaoCao]

Weighted Dip is the best shit in the world!!!!!!!!!

[AntoRoberts]

Every time I see a Scott Herman video in my sub box I need to hit the gym!

[Jnvlv247]

This is such a pain, just put weights on your lap and do it using two benches

[Crossan9415]

i lol'd at 1:07

[Tonyb88FTW]

Scott, I can do 10+ wide grip pull ups but I can't do a single Dip, how would I train to do dips?

[zkjgrty]

@Tonyb88FTW Pull ups are good for the biceps.. Dips require triceps as you can see Scott's tri's are ripping lol. Just start doing push ups.. Great chest + triceps workout.

[ScottHermanFitness]

@Tonyb88FTW start doing with with your feet on the ground while hanging off a lat bench :)

[santhorhongwei]

@Tonyb88FTW that's crap lol.

[ca9109]

@Tonyb88FTW i can do weighted dips but i can't do a single wide grip pull up lol

[gejwaites]

Seen some of the comments asking you why you don't want to get bigger and all that. I understand, (not because I'm anywhere near your size) but I guess I can understand not wanting to be the awkwardly huge guy who has to wear horrible XXXXXXXXXXL clothes.

What I'm curious about is how do you train at a high intensity level but not get bigger? I assume you train hard how come you don't naturally just bulk up more and more...?

[Zipemova1]

Scott,

Hurt my lower back, been out of the gym for week. Getting better and feel like I could start working out again, but feeling a little apprehensive, as I don't know what I did that hurt my back and a little unmotivated. How do I get back on track?

[MustBeFiend]

@Zipemova1 maybe...go back?

[Zipemova1]

@MustBeFiend

Thanks I have...funny how that works. 

[The1basedgod]

HOW DO YOU GET THOSE BICEP VEINS??????

[GTA360]

@The1basedgod just get ripped and work out it unitl u get a pump.

[lovecars890]

Hi! Scott! Is 16 a good age to start working out? Also, if you are fit and eating healthy, and you enrolled in a gym in about how much time would you see a change (bigger biceps, abs, chest) off course always working hard and eating healthy!

Thanks! Great job!

[hangtimepro]

Did I just hear the camera man chuckle at 1:09?

[pollitogranjero]

this excercise is for chest of triceps?

cause i knew that depending on the position and beniding its could be for chest or tricep

[baseballreg123]

is this a chest exercise?

[robiscool09]

@baseballreg123 yes, one of the hardest chest exercises

[xXxHolLoWxXx]

How do you get your veins to pop out like that? When i work out they don't pop out as much as yours.

[TheUsernameAndrew]

These give me such a good pump for chest and tricep

[Fitange]

Awesome stuff!

[BradentonSucks]

hey scott is there somewhere were i could ask you some questions?

[crocjump]

Is this supposed to be the tricep dips og the chest dips?

[JonesMOBGang]

Holy your arm man what do you eat ?! man look at your veins

[aaronothepea]

@ScottHermanFitness Scott, how often do you stretch? Do you have days where you just stretch rather than weight train or cardio?

Wish they had a belt like that at my gym :(

[ScottHermanFitness]

@aaronothepea i stretch in the mornings every morning. it is the only way I can be fully awake and functional :)

[RealManchester7]

hey scott, is there anyway to do weighted dips with the iron gym?

[ScottHermanFitness]

@RealManchester7 it will break. I dont recommend it :/

[ariisbest2]

i know this is a random comment to post here, but just yesterday (friday), the security at our school made me sit in his office and started talking to me about an even that occurred two days ago (thursday), in which me and my friend vandalized two school bathrooms (we clogged toilets, broke a trash can, threw trash all over the place). well, now, the school hasnt called my parents and im beginning to think I may have to tell them. anyone got any tips on how to tell my parents what happened?

[impulsivegrizzly]

how big are you? I mean, how many inches for arms, quads, chest, calves etc. :P

[riderowned]

My gym doesn't have a weight belt. Do you think I could just use a single dumbbell instead?

[simplygarnett]

i think youve already dont a weighted dips video?

[mmmmmmmmmmhhhhhh]

what is the cinedrome room @ 1:20

[ScottHermanFitness]

@mmmmmmmmmmhhhhhh a cardio theatre room with arc trainers and spin bikes :)

[suparpowers]

Scott why don't you wanna get bigger?

[irvykinneas]

@suparpowers i think that because he's also a model, otherwise they would hire gorillas

[ScottHermanFitness]

@suparpowers why do I need to?

[Bl4ckCr4y0ns]

@ScottHermanFitness does that mean you do 15 reps per exercise? Instead of 8?

[RealManchester7]

@ScottHermanFitness

ok, thanks for the tip.

I guess i will do incline, should make it harder.

[ddshane]

@ScottHermanFitness You seem like you have the potential to really get huge, but I think that the fact that you are happy with who you are right now is even better.

You're a great guy for giving out free fitness info; thanks for the vids!!

[suparpowers]

@ScottHermanFitness I don't know? Cuz it looks better and you're stronger...

[Dez88Bryant]

scott i'm a 19 year old man with 16 inch biceps, all because of your workouts, thank you sir

[ScottHermanFitness]

@Dez88Bryant you are very welcome my friend! Keep up the great work! :)

[ScottHermanFitness]

@Dez88Bryant you are very welcome my friend!  Keep up the great work! :)

[ScottHermanFitness]

@Dez88Bryant you are very welcome my friend! Keep up the great work! :)

[DiedrichFunk]

@lassekkk scott herman is just trying to maintain the amount of muscle he has... his tips are really good, you just have to use them right and bump up with heavier weights every now and then. thats how you gain muscle

[1994djNemo]

Scott, is it true that you are not really doing 'bodybuilding' anymore, but more the things like endurance, balance and that kind of stuff?

[ScottHermanFitness]

@1994djNemo I am not sure what you mean? I have been the same size for the last 4 years.. EXACTLY where I want to be :)

[58firefox]

@ScottHermanFitness Why exactly you do not want to get any bigger? I mean, it is not so that bigger is always better but still, a little more won't hurt right?

[1994djNemo]

@ScottHermanFitness Well that's just a great thing :D some people don't know when to stop and are becoming monsters

[juicykai2208]

lies! you've been getting bigger @ScottHermanFitness

[milkmannen]

@ScottHermanFitness

My motto is to be small with clothes on and big when you take them off. Not the other way around. So in my book is your body perfect, just like mine :-) and I'm 42 lol

[TheMatos17]

@ScottHermanFitness You're huge man.

[TheProjectAkel]

@ScottHermanFitness i think he was refering to your vids

[milkmannen]

Great reminder Scott! I sort of forgotten this exercise.

A word of warning though is that dips can be quite hard on your shoulders, atleast that's my experience. So make sure you always keep good form and had a good warm up before doing this.

[ScottHermanFitness]

@milkmannen oh yes... you need to keep those elbows tucked in at all times for sure! :)

[CookinWithGreen]

Hey scott, Big fan of your videos! I had a concern about this video. I am a huge fan of weighted dips, have been doing them for months, until about a month ago. I tore my left Pec. I was told that this was because I went too low (Past 90 degrees, which is what you suggested) Just curious as to whether or not going past 90 is dangerous. Thanks for all the great videos, keep em coming! -J

[ScottHermanFitness]

@CookinWithGreen I guess I need to ask.  How often do you stretch?

[CookinWithGreen]

@ScottHermanFitness Before and after working out. I usually warm up with skipping for 10 mins, then stretch and warmup without weight. Then do 15 reps with 1 plate, same with 2 plates, then working set 8 reps 3 plates. Do you think it was perhaps a lack of stretching/warmup?

[1994djNemo]

THIRST! (gonna take a beer), BTW Scott, what effect does alcohol have on your whole training and after??? :D

[matteblatte94]

@1994djNemo hes already done a video about alcohol, and scobby1961 aswell, and also barthelfitness.you should have no problems finding them

[ScottHermanFitness]

@1994djNemo LEt me refrase the question and have you tell me.  In know you know the answer my friend.

[suparpowers]

@1994djNemo wow jij bent stoer!

[1994djNemo]

@suparpowers vertel mij wat :D maar ff serieus: het was niet bedoeld om stoer te zijn, maar iemand zei heel blij: FIRST!!! dit was een reactie daarop, en ik werd gelijk herinnerd aan dat ik nog wilde weten welk effect alcohol heeft ivm trainen.

(Sorry that I'm not talking english guys, but I had to answer this in dutch)

[ringhede92]

@1994djNemo incase scott doesn't answer this I can do it for him. first of you are 16 years old, so you shouldn't drink. besides that, alcohol is empty calories, it doesn't have any nutrients. It lowers protein synthesis by 20%. it also dehydrates the muscle cells.

[1994djNemo]

@ringhede92 what does it have to do with your age? is it worse if you are younger?

[ringhede92]

@1994djNemo Instead of preaching about how bad teenage drinking may be and the reason why there is an age limit there actually are physical consequences. Alcohol have been found to delay puberty, but most important, it can slow bonegrowth.

[1994djNemo]

@ringhede92 In Holland the age limit is 16 (which actually isn't good for people if you look at health). But thanks for all the info guys, the punch line is that alcohol is bad in many ways, the only good of it is for your own feelings (the only reason I drink it, modestly), but for your body it's just bad, which is unfortunate, but there's nothing you can do about it.

[togood01000]

scot i weight 155 and want to get down to 140 i max bench 200 and im 16 . im not that fat i eat chicken and a gallon of water everyday am i doing it right?

[lassekkk]

@togood01000 no, you are taking Scott's tips ! look at his progress over the year, it is ZERO !! ask a personal trainer, stick to the basic...scott is all about the fancy shit

[ScottHermanFitness]

@lassekkk listen DUDE... I have LOTS of the basics on here, however community members want to learn new exercises and the fitness industry is changing EVERYDAY. Also.. where did I ever say anywhere that I wanted to change how I look? Don't be a dope in the comment section of MY videos.
