Your BW and how many dips can you do?

i dunno haven't maxed out in a while, but I sometimes do 25 while sitting at my desk at work (its an L shape) @ 160lbs.

edit: and I think any serious gymnast would rape anybody's records doing dips.
 
Mine is 15@145lbs. Always had a shoulder joint problem with this exercise. Somehow over the time I managed to do it without injury, I do even weighted ones now.


That guy in the vid is doing his wrists, nor chest/triceps. Agree about gymnast's numbers will dominate this thread.
 
When I was 150-160, I could do in the neighborhood of 50.

For comparison, today at BW 192, I did
BW+90x3x5, then a final set of BWx30 at the end of my session
 
When I was a junior in high school, I bet my track coach that I could do 100. I lost, but I did do 77 full ROM dips at 142 lbs BW. Now I'm 40 lbs heavier and my right arm goes numb after a set of dips, but I'm going to do a set tomorrow just to see what I can do.

edit - I'm 41 and weigh 180 and I did 30 full range of motion dips this morning.

205, I'm not an abnormally strong guy but I have mad dips for some reason. 50+ would not be an issue.

Pull-ups, probably a little less.
