090618 weighted dips 190x1

weight belt = (35+25+25+15) = 100 lbs
backback = (35+25) = 60 lbs
weight vest = 20 lbs
neck = 10 lbs

190x1 PR!

I also made 185x1 PR, but this one is better.

How was that for your shoulders? You went down so fast!

[eshlow]

@wandererstraining shoulders have never been healthier because I take care of them. :)

@eshlow on rings again would help me finishing my rehab. Anyways. Keep training yourself the way you do, and keep following your own advices. Don't ever do something you know is bad to get someone's technical advices, even if they can be worth it. There's always other people who will give you those advices and let you listen to yourself.

PS: That's a story shared with you by an ex high-level gymnast. If you can ever have a use for it and want to share it, just do it, no need to ask.

[eshlow]

@wandererstraining thanks for the advice. As I am going into physical therapy and know about high level training, injury prevention is definitely one of the things that is very important to me. There's even a large section in my recently released book on this topic. :)

@eshlow I know, I saw the table of content. It seems very interesting, you have a similar approach to mine, and I think I'll buy it when I won't be broke. I was also considering contacting you, cause I'm writing a book on the fundamentals of handstands. Right now it's in French, but I'll eventually translate it in English, and I was thinking about sending you a copy for you to evaluate, if you find it interesting (I'm obsessed with handstands).

[eshlow]

@wandererstraining That would be awesome.

[wandererstraining]

@eshlow I'm glad you're interested. I'll send you a message when my English version will be pretty ready (still lots of work to do, I have to take over 500 pictures and make videos before having the French version ready).

[wandererstraining]

@eshlow And now, I recovered, but I still don't dare playing too much on heavy dips. I rehabilitated myself by doing bodyweight isolation exercises, and by progressively switching them over to compound exercises, until I could do proper full range HSPU and pull-ups. I also used bodyweight dips, but they were pretty painful so I had to use them sparsely. It really bother me, cause I was very strong on dips, too. Now, I don't dare doing heavy weighted dips again. Maybe starting to do them ->

@eshlow (lots, and lots of one arm handstands, 90 degree push-ups, planches, and aerial straps combined), and my join wouldn't be stabilized anymore. But I had to keep going, because my teacher pushed me to do more and more, even if I couldn't do quality work anymore (I knew it was bad, but he had tips that I really wanted to know, so I kept listening at him), and because I had to perform to pay my rent and food. That injury prevented me from training during a year. ->

[wandererstraining]

@eshlow That's awesome. I injured mines an undetermined time ago. I did all my prehab correctly, I worked on all plans on my shoulders, and even if I wasn't doing manna, I was regularly using a v-sit where I'd try to push my hips further forwards and up, and I was also regularly doing inverted pull-ups, inverted rows, and good stuff for my shoulders. My mistake was stupid: I had to perform waay more than I should've. So much that my rotator cuff muscles would get exhausted ->

Wow!
