      I do 3 x 8 sets of wide grip pull ups, deep dips and benched press ups 3 times a week.......don't bother with lat pulls no more, thats just me though.

      whats funny about that ?

      i know for a fact i could of pushed out 4 more reps, but whats the point ? i wouldnt be able to match it on the close grip, which is what i like to do. They arent a muscle building exercise ? i just do them at the start while im fresh to get a warmup
