THE BENEFITS OF DOING WEIGHTED DIPS
When done right, a workout that includes dips can be very beneficial for three main reasons. Doing dip exercises works the triceps, chest, and shoulders. These benefits are right for anyone, no matter if you’re a strength, power, or fitness athlete.
1) LOCKOUT STRENGTH AND PERFORMANCE
For anyone that struggles with the lockout phase during a bench press or upper body press, doing dips can help. Triceps are involved in the elbow extension movement of most push/press exercises, so performing dips allows strengthening of the triceps muscles and allows a greater range of motion.
2) IMPROVED OVERHEAD STABILITY
Triceps and elbows work together to stabilize movement in overhead positions such as the overhead squat (OH squat). A great way to help develop the triceps, wrists, and shoulders for such workouts is adding dips.
3) MORE DEFINED ARMS
Performing dip exercises builds the triceps muscle, which makes up more than half of the arm. The more defined your triceps get, the bigger the arms. If you’re seriously looking to build your arms, focus on dip exercises regularly.

Leather Dipping Belt

As the name suggests, you can use a leather dipping belt for dips, which is a great workout for the chest and triceps, but is also suitable for but not limited to pull ups, weighted sumo squats and chin ups.

Dips target your chest, shoulders and triceps. Once you are strong enough to do dips with ease, a dipping belt can make all the difference. With the belt around your waist and the weight between your legs, support your weight on your hands and bend your legs so your feet are off the floor.

Bend your arms and descend until your elbows are bent to at least 90 degrees. Push back up and repeat. In terms of loading, start by adding around 10 percent of your body weight to your dipping belt.

Pullups and chin-ups are performed using an overhand shoulder-width grip or a narrower underhand grip. Both grips work your biceps and latissimus dorsi, or side back muscles.

While some exercisers never manage a single rep of this challenging exercise, some workout enthusiasts add extra weight to make this exercise even harder.

Hip belt squats are a hidden gem of lower body training. Serious lifters have been using them for years to build bigger and stronger legs, yet this exercise is still quite unknown due to lack of knowledge and/or a general awkwardness in performing the lift.

What makes hip belt squats unique? is that they offer a loaded bilateral squatting pattern without loading the spine, making it an appealing option for working around injuries.

Back-pain sufferers often struggle with the spinal compression and shear that comes from axial loading. Hip belt squats circumvent this as the hips and legs take on the brunt of the load.

It also works well for anyone with an upper extremity injury to the shoulder, elbow, wrist, or hand that may struggle to support the bar during back squats, front squats, or Zercher squats.
