hi guys

while doing negative PB dip, what is proper width between elbows?

My elbows are go outside of PB width.

and shoulders are not touching hands.

Is it important factor of mastery check?

Hi Evan,

You want to keep your elbows from flaring to the side. Your shoulders do not have to touch your hands but they should be close :)

I recommend to submit a form check to be sure. We are definetely looking at these points :)

Can’t wait for your video!

The general width suggested from GB videos refers to gymnastics pbar width that is the distance from elbows to the longest finger of your hands plus 2-3 cm.
