Pain in chest when doing dips?

[dgessler]

Is this pain normal? When I do dips, I already get this pressure against my chest and it hurts quite a bit, but I always finish them, 3 sets of 8.

Just want to see if I might be doing something wrong (although dips are pretty straightforward and I'm almost psoitive I'm doing everything right).


Thanks.
Dan

I'm not sure if it's normal or not, but when I first started doing dips, I used to get the same thing. It went away after a while though.

I get the same pain every time i do it as well and I'm pretty sure that I'm doing it right..

No worries. I had that pain as well but it went away as I became stronger and better at it.
