App for doing dips | Forum

#1

Given that the only workout I do now is dips, I decided to at least try a bit better.

So I downloaded an app which has work out program.

3 times per week work out, 1 day pause between each workout.

One workout has 5 parts. First part you do lets say 13 dips, then pause for 2 minutes, then second part do 11 dips, then pause, then 10 dips, then pause, then 9 dips, then pause, then 8 dips, and thats it for one day.

You dont actually use your whole strength on day 1. For example, I typed that I can do 20 dips maximum at once, and for workout, it recommended what was mentioned before, 13 dips.

Maximum strength is only used once a week. Other 2 times are basically only 60% of strength.

I used to do dips until I cant anymore each time, but this does sound like a better way. 2 times a week use 60% strength, and the 3rd time use 100%.

I typed that I can do 20 dips maximum, but I actually can do about 30 to 40. Stuck on that number as I dont work out regularly but am trying to get back into regular work out and the app might help.

I put a lot of dips on my taco chips.

Hmmmm.

Why do you spread on.

Why don't you simply dip.

The clue is in the name.

Though it would be preferable not to dip your fingers if sharing.

Or perhaps it was metaphorically spreading on.

Dips don't sound particularly strenuous and therefore not particularly beneficial.

But perhaps you dip very low and very frantically.

Even small dips in your income can become very noticeable.

They are for triceps, most important muscle in arm.

Especially if one has a tendency to overspend.

@SergeantLynch

Will stronger triceps help you resist the overspending?
