pull ups behind the neck
3 sets of 5 reps

3 pull ups + 3 chin ups with 10 kg
3 pull ups + 3 chin ups with 20 kg

notice: I did the pull ups on a very thick beam so it was a good test for my grips

 

[Bulkboy]

good benching and some very impressive pullups. whats ur bodyweight atm buddy?

 

[jonathan]

i weigh around 80 kg, 176 pounds. Sometimes a little more. Btw my benching sucked yesterday. Normally 110 kg is no problem for me. I've benched 118 from the bottom up, hopefully I can achieve that magic number of 120 soon. thx for stopping by anyway
