  • Bench dips are one of the most commonly performed exercises in the gym. Given their ease of setup, they are actually a great exercise for home workouts too since you can do them on the back of a couch or chair. The problem is, the bench dip is also one of the most abused and misperformed exercises which can quickly ruin your shoulders if you don’t fix how you’re doing them. In this video, I’m going to show you how to perform a bench dip safely so you can build your muscles without wrecking your shoulders.

    The problem with the bench dip starts with the position of your shoulders during the exercise. The two things you want to avoid is letting your shoulders migrate forward as you do them, or upwards as you go down into the rep. Either one of these mistakes will wind up putting your shoulder in a compromising position that could create an impingement on the rotator cuff tendons, bursa or both.
    The shoulders tend to protrude forward when doing the bench dip mostly because of the initial positioning of the hands on the bench. If you have your thumbs facing your body, you are automatically internally rotating the shoulder and making it virtually impossible that you’ll be able to perform the exercise properly without risk of injury. To correct this you want to start by rotating your hands outward so that your thumbs are pointing toward the front at the very least if not a little bit more.
    From here, you want to consciously make sure that you open your chest and keep your shoulders back rather than letting them lazily fall forward as you start the exercise. This becomes much easier to do when you don’t allow your shoulders to shrug up or collapse on your body as you descend into every rep. Actively depress your shoulder blades and keep your shoulders unshrugged throughout the exercise to ensure that you are keeping the proper position during the bench dip.
    When you get both of these correct you will automatically notice two things. The first is that your shoulders feel much better and do not feel any pinching pain or grinding. The second is that you are feeling way more work being done by your triceps than at any time before making these changes. When you make these tweaks you place more of the stress on the working muscles and you wind up getting much more out of the exercise.
    Regarding the difficulty of the exercise, the closer your keep your feet during the movement the easier it becomes. If you want more of a challenge, you would keep your feet far away from your body and even progress to performing it on your heels. Beginners might need to keep their feet in close to their body and flat on the floor to make sure they are doing the exercise right. It is far more important to get it right first and then progress the difficulty than the other way around.
    If you are looking for a complete training program that will not only train you to make the best muscle gains and fat losses than at any other point in your training without compromising your joints in the process, head to athleanx.com and get on of our ATHLEAN-X Training Programs.

    1. Rotate your hands outward
    2. Keep your shoulders "down and back". This is tougher on the triceps, but that's what we want!

      It isnt forever though, after around 7-8 months I was able to gently do exercises which required strength from the rotator cuff/front delt area. Now around a year later I am around 95% recovered. Dont let it stop you training, just be careful buddy

      Rangus hi buddy, sorry to hear you’re having some trouble here and there. It sucks, but isn’t forever... the healthcare system in the UK is very similar in that sense, you will get initially triaged with an leaflet on recovery exercises, a resistance band and some painkillers! If you think your shoulder/bone structure is now a little out of place I would consider chiropractic services - that is in an extreme scenario. Otherwise research rehabilitation exercises for your injury (they seem dumb but they worked for me!). Good luck brother

      Technically, because according to Newton's third law for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Meaning as the Earth pushes up on Joff he's pushing down on the Earth. The earth just doesn't feel much movement because according to Newton's second law F=MA. Because force is the same in both cases but the mass of the earth is a lot larger than Joff, the acceleration of the earth is tiny, virtually 0. But it still technically exists.

      When doing Squats, Deadlifts, and Benching(less so than the first two) you should be performing the Valsalva Manuveur to create intra-abdominal pressure to take force off of your lower back and spine.

    I was a gymnast and I used to incorporate dips into my morning mat work after competition days. If you push your hips well forward, you will avoid all this. I would do the dips on a built-in cabinet and then prop my feet up on two armchairs, so that the range of motion is properly defined. It also makes it a bit more fun and challenging.

    Update6 months and I'm still loving this bench. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxo_64lVTGMk7y4aXTPxPOcQ3YTLyQ6kYV I use it almost daily. I've gotten used to the small wobble and it's no problem at all. Love the storage, it folds right next to my weight set in the garage and hardly takes any space. I wish the covering material was a little bit tougher. I have a feeling that in a couple years it'll tear, but the bench is very well priced that I would just buy a new one.3 month usage review. Awesome bench for someone looking for compactness and storage. I did have to drill a couple holes to adjust my preferred seating position and leg bar position but that's only due to my personal preference. It's very sturdy for normal workouts, but for anyone going above 100# dumbbell press it wobbles ever so slightly. I would probably go with a fixed bench if that's the case. That being said i can accomplish 99% of my normal gym workout with this setup. Very happy with the purchase.

    I have a bulging disk in my lower back which causes pain in my left shoulder so no strain on it is exactly what I’m looking for. I instantly felt this movement move from my shoulders, where I was able to dip much much further down but with terrible form and it didn’t feel sustainable, to my triceps where there a much smaller movement but I didn’t feel it in my shoulders at all and it absolutely felt sustainable. Nicely done sir.

Too many fitness gurus don't know their stuff. He definitely does!!!!

    Hey Jeff, I've been watching all of your videos for years and thank you for all your content and teaching everyone. I recently got to the point to where I can't lift anything above about 10 pounds without any pain in my left arm that seems to stem from the ball and socket joint and maybe the bicep tendon as well. It's been a month and I still can't use my arm normally. I'd love to see an opinion on what to do when you're injured because not alot of us know what to do in this circumstance.

    I've been having trouble with my shoulders since I started doing front and side lateral raises. I thought those were the cause, but having watched this video, and applied what Jeff said, my shoulder pain has gone! Yeah it's more difficult, but I'd prefer not to rip my shoulders out.
    I also noticed my chest pain has improved as well, could that be linked? A tightness across my sternum, tender to the touch and "cracks" when I stretch my arms behind me. Definitely musculo-skeletal, I'm not having a heart attack or anything!
    Thanks for another awesome video Jeff!

    @LuadoO 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Hey Jeff, a friend of mine who is a physical educator told me this could harm me. He said:
    Most people have wrist and fingers flexors shortened. This position demands a great stretch and tension of these muscles. Long-term effect = flexor tendonitis and medial epicondylitis.
    Second point, in this hand position the natural compensation is to throw the elbow inwards during the execution. The elbow joint is in gingival, that is, it allows movement in only one plane. With this natural compensation, the joint can wear out.
    Third, the shoulder joint is not simple. We have three external rotator muscles and only 1 internal rotator. Therefore rotating the shoulder internally is a natural position where the body defends itself (since q has 3 structures to maintain stability), while tension in external rotation, it has only one muscle (usually shortened) to guarantee this stabilization. That is, the excessive effort in the internal rotator, in the long run will promote an increase in the protruded shoulders posture (rotated forward) because there will be an imbalance of forces between agonists (internal rotators) and antagonists (external rotators).
    So, can u shine a light here and counter it ? I feel way better doing the exercise as you explained on the video, he insists though, that I do not :(

      ask under the QA section in the program inside AX, one of the coaches or others will guide you. my advice would be to do it again with increased weights, you can also begin using different weight levels (lower and slightly higher) from your previous months to increase muscle confusion. he also has a video on that as well.

    Thank you so much for showing the correct technique on this as now I hope I will be able to implement them without causing further shoulder pain.
