Author Topic: Chins vs. pulldowns!!!!!!! (Read 6197 times)

I am glad your thinking of doing a real men's exercise. Chins built great backs such as Arnold, Franco, Haney, Sergio, Samir, Yates, Coleman, and of course Alexxx.

i think i'm gonna start doing them again at the beginning of my back workout, i'm 230 though, i'll just do as many sets as it takes to get to 50.

MY best back and bicep workouts are pull ups in the park. I do 120-130 reps. Lats and biceps are sore for days. The bigger you get(I'm 256) the more important it is to still be able to do them. My first set is about 15 and each set after is from 8-10. lat pull downs are for girls, old men and fat guys

Alexxx gives handjobs to train his back.

I like to do chins because I can do them with 190% of my bodyweight

I figure that is the best pulling movement I can do.

Train it like it was bench (set and rep schemes) and you will get great gains

no no no.... he "chins" a lot of cock

Also 190% of your bodyweight would be like like 290lbs. I guess you're including your body weight too.

My form is flawless

I use no momentum and pull to the sternum.

explosive pull just like a vertical deadlift.

I basically have no respect for GRAVITY

or for streakers, ones who wear trenchcoats, or the internet version, beanie-wearing penis pic posters.

Never done lat pulldowns regularly, only weighted chins and pullups, and my back is easily my one of the more developed muscles i have.
