I thought we were going to the adult diaper thing here, glad we are talking the exercise, because I feel the best pump on them like no other.

Staple of back work. Used to do a lot of these, not so much anymore. Seek, you're a beast buddy.

I haven't even tried to do a pullup in years. I remember in my lower 200lb days doing them and they were an awesome mass builder for my lats. Nice work big fella.

seek shits on every 20 something year old thinks he's badass kid in the gym. wide grip pull ups are hard as fukk especially when you're the size of a gorilla. good shit man. I don't do them, I do regular pull ups and can bang out about 20, which for my size I think is decent.

Been a fan of pull-ups since my days I'm the Corps. Pull-downs are no replacement by any means.
Dips are great, but pull-ups are my favorite bodyweight exercise.
It turns my stomach seeing the guys do kipping, crappy, swinging pull-ups.
Looking good, seek!

very good exercise, I'm his super fan, no better than him for the width of the back, I do with different hits, with weight and with my own weight
