50kg dips for 6 reps. I wasn’t always able to do this.
Here are 3 things to focus on if you want to improve yours 👇🏼
1️⃣ Strip back the ego.
Stop trying to hit a one-rep max every session. Constantly testing your strength can leave you accumulating fatigue without giving yourself a proper chance to build it. Have a plan. There needs to be some method to the madness.
2️⃣ Build a better foundation.
A good house needs solid foundations. Own your bodyweight reps first, controlled movement, full range of motion that you can comfortably manage, and no bouncing through the bottom. When you add weight, those same standards apply.
3️⃣ Progress gradually.
Aim to do a little more over time. An extra rep, a small increase in weight, or better control at the same load. You won’t improve every single session, but you should be tracking what you’re doing so you know when you’re ready to progress.
Be patient enough to earn the heavier weights.
Save this for your next push session.
