Comment on my weighted Dip form

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ez99tfz1zjo

FYI:
1) I usually do about 10 sets of 4-7 reps, greasing the groove...
2) I will not go below a 90 degree elbow bend, too much stress on my joints

Looks pretty solid to me. Especially compared to what I see at my gym and nobody even does them weighted (except me of course).

Depending on what your training them for, I usually try to keep more upright being that I use them to start my tricep workout.

....as well as being embedded, I thought your form looked fine. No shrugging at all, and it looked hard.

looked just like my own angle, depth and rhythm which seemed good. do those wrist straps give you any support for anything?

Ya man, they are great... They definitely support the bones in the hand... I tighten them down for heavy bench and heavy dips... I strained my wrist doing heavy bench (2 plates/side) and dips (2 plates) last year so I started using the straps nice and tight and no problems since! Never had problems before, but I guess with age comes issues, glad there are ways around it

BTW, the thick pads in the gloves I use also cushion the bones in the hand which is nice for heavy dips...
