Just stick a DB between your feet 
get one of these, so so useful 
and not overly expensive. Or as delvis advised db between your feet, however that can be really uncomfortable.

Using a DB sends my hammies in to cramp! Donotwant.jpg

Better than nothing yo, why not hamstring curl while you do dips? Ultra workout.
Joking.
I need to get my dips up to scratch before I add weight to them, doesn't help the fact I have to do them on the handles of some old fashioned rickety mounting climbing thing!

I need to get a dipping belt i think. 20kg dumbells between the legs is about as much as i can take.

Well that's a real contender for "gay post of the year".
as linked above, and when you get to around 35-40kg then you can upgrade the chain and attachments and the belt is good for over 80kg as LiE is doing with his crazy BW+BW dips!
Got to the gym on time this morning so the session was good, no rushing.
everything for 3 sets of 5 after warm up sets compelted and rest kept to 90 seconds between sets
Deadlifts 120kg all unbelted
third set here:
Bench Press 75kg
RDL 80kg
Walking DB Lunges 15kg(per hand)
BB Curls 30kg
Pull ups, controlled reps, 3 second negs on full reps and 6 second negs on just neg reps
3 full 2 neg, 4 full 1 neg
Half Flags 3 and 3 video'd myself and was very disappointed with my back
Plank 1 min x 2
stretching, some much needed stretching
videos to be uploaded

Guy at 0:10 in your flags video has some strong shorts.
He is so annoying, he grunts excessively no matter what he is doing on almost every rep of anything he does.
Todays workout, 3 sets of 5 reps
Squats 110kg
third set of squats
Dips 27.5kg (******* love these
)OHP 47.5kg felt really good as well

Nice work mate. Loving the squat depth, weight looks easy for you.
Jealous of the OHP, my shoulders are just weak as sin.

Squats look too easy for you.. increase the weight, the same goes for OHP
Cheers mate, i have been making a point of hitting depth for the last few months while keeping everything else as in check as possible.
OHP is a funny one for me, it was easier today then mondays 45kg was!

Good dipping
The squats look really tidy, and super easy.

Half Flags 2 2. Tried to be stricter then the last time to stop my back rounding out.
Plank 1x 1min
3rd set of deadlifts i belted up, but after my 3rd rep i had to unbelt as i either had the belt in an odd position, or something was pinching but i got a nasty twinge/pinch in my lower abdominal/groin area. My right obliques are now oddly dom'sy already. Time for some soft tissue work and praying maybe.
