..what? those aren't tricep dips what you are doing are bench dips Weighted Bench Dip

bench dips are not as effective as tricep dips Weighted Triceps Dip

okay well bench dips, how much weight is it though like with body weight plus the plates or whatever, i dont have anywhere to do the tricept dips so i do bench dips haha

What does it matter?

The time and effort it would take to calculate it wouldnt help you at all. If it can actually be worked out accurately, which i dont think it can.

You were doing your BW + 45lbs, thats all the notation you need. Work on increasing that.

I would try find some way of doing proper Dips though, Bench Dips arent very kind on the shoulders because of the position that movement puts them in, and could lead to a mischief if you keep upping the weight.
