Just looking for some feedback on my dips. Are they low enough? Position ok? Thanks.

Nice shoulder ROM, but keep your head up ![]()
I prefer to keep the chest quite straight to emphasise the shoulder extension, but this is to be eased into of course.
Thanks Jon -- by chest straight, do you mean closer to vertical?
Hey David,
Yes, aim to gradually get your torso more perpendicular to the floor.
Since I don't have room to fully extend my legs, I think I'm leaning forward as a counterbalance. I think I can get more upright if I lift my knees up more towards my chest -- would that be good?

That's what I do when I'm on short PBars. I always find a better position on taller bars that only require a knee bend at most. Do your best with what you have though.
Got it - will try next time. Thanks much.

How about if you do a nice L-sit? :-) hee hee, look who's talking? I am not even there and making it super hard for you :-D
As Stated by Jon I prefer a more vertical trajectory.
