Hey, i dont have any rings but i do have a set of chairs where i regularly do dips.

When i take a video i see that my elbows are actually slightly behinds rather than pointing out.

But when i look at videos, i see alot of gymnasts able to go all the way down, they can touch the bar with their shoulders. I can only go to about 90 degree or so untill it starts to hurt a bit.

So how do i get lower? Any tips or anything.

Also what do you guys think of psudo planche pushups (basically hip pushups)?

thanks again :)

Basically unless you are super tight and can go no further down because of this, in time you'll be able to go lower when you get stronger.
