Hi,
I'm a NuB to this board. Can you plz help me gains muscles?
aight kids,
i have a question about dips, here goes...
are you supposed to keep your shoulder blades/traps pinched back as far as possible during dips, like on a flatbench?
I've always wondered this, cuz its like the key to benchpressing.
OR...
when you get to the top of the dip movement, do you let your shoulder blades "roll" forward so you can go up as high as possible? AND kinda keep your shoulders as low as possible (kinda like the opposite of shrugging a weight...where instead of raising your traps as high as possible you're actually keeping them as low as possible)
i know its a little confusing, but you gotta just picture your shoulder blades pinched all the way back doing dips. when they ARE pinched at the top of the movement, you can only do up so high...
I hope this makes sense...
