Ive been dipping for a few months and these last few days i dip a can of Copenhagen LC in 3 days... and im starting to see gum recession does it grow back and how do i make it better?

I will be posting pictures of what im dipping when i get the chance

I'm just curious about how this is suppose to work.

Will this program work for bodyweight dips? Or is this just for platform based dips.

I can already do several bodyweight dips, so I'd love to work towards 150 of them.

So Im trying to do squats, dips and situps. I need something to get moving again. Ive always joked that Im like a T-rex, big legs and little arms because I cant even do a knees down pushup. That being said, I was surprised I was able to do 14 dips.

i did 63 as my initail test. should i start at week 5 or should i just start at week 3.

I have carpal tunnel syndrome in both of my wrists, and I am finding that doing the dips aggravates it immensely. I enjoy doing the dips otherwise, and am very excited about continuing this program. So, I have a question for anyone else who might be experiencing wrist pain/discomfort...

Are there any kind of braces you use for this? The ones I sleep with have a metal bar down the center, and are not suitable for doing dips. Or any alteration techniques you know of?

But I've got a few questions.

1. can anyone recommend a android app? I have I've found them a lot more useful for exercise than I thought.
2. would you recommend this on the rest days for c25k, when I'm doing pushups and situps, or after running?

Thanks!

I just did Week 1 Day 1 yesterday, and I've been having A LOT of back pain since then, in my upper back. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance for any information/advice!

Perhaps, I'm a bit psyched about the whole situation, but after finishing week 4, Day 1. I am fully confident that I can complete the challenge. Everyone of us has something special inside, when we use it, we can do ANYTHING! Depression still exists in my body, but as long as I have my good will, I will succeed, and so can you!

Okay, on my initial test I got 57 clean reps. From what I was reading in "The Plan" that's a level 4 for a beginner. My issue is that I am hitting the pressure points between my shoulder and neck and it's causing me to go quite numb. Is that normal? Does it mean that there is too much stress in that area? Either way, I wouldn't say that I am impressed with my first try, my goal was 60 since I had never tested it. Any help?

I have always had week upper arms. I thought doing this progrom would improve my strength but it is not working out. I've repeated whole weeks and days. I completed week 4 (repeating each day) and decided I should run through the week one more time before I move on to week 5. I failed w4d1 even after I successfully completed it twice previously.

I just don't know what else I can do!?

Also, my elbow makes a popping sound every time I dip. It doesn't hurt, but I don't think it should be making that sound!

Any advice out there?
