So no one is going to try using a dip belt with weights to help them keep from falling over on standing cable chest press? HEY DANKID, give it a go, and see if it works.

If you’re gonna put a dip belt on, why not do some dips and chins?

Damn, I am just curious if it would work. I dont have the setup to test myself, and if I wanted to do that I would just do band resisted pushups instead.

I just tried cable cross overs, and they get my seal of approval. After heavy pressing of course. They seem like a great addition to use when my heavy pressing consists of mostly tricep work that day, in replacement of a “supplemental press”. I think using them in a more “bodybuilding” rep scheme would be better than going heavy. I tried both that workout and whenever the weight got too high up there I would lean forward or use my biceps or cheat in some other way.
