They are higher rep and will give you a burn you wont believe..I think you'll like it.
Also, since you are supersetting those dips with flyes and flyes don't really incorporate your tris as much as benching and military presses do, you might find you don't feel as gassed when you start doing military presses and can work with heavier weights. You can lower the number of sets when doing your bench dips since you are bulking. But I promise you that doing them right after doing your extensions will literally kick your ass!
thanks for your input. i know what bench dips (high rep) are for tris incredible burn. but i want to still do these chest dips (not so wide grip) as even weighted they dont bother my shoulders for now and i feel good stretch in chest. and as you said supersetting them with flyes may be beneficial because my triceps get some rest before military press. and also i feel great burn when doing dips & flyes together. for me very good combo.
