pretty good, ought to be fairly helpful for those seeking relative strength from bodyweight resistance.

I would have to half way disagree with chins being better than pulldowns. I have been working out for 4 years now, and tried all different grips, versions of chins, and did get some results. But when I started doing palms up close grip pulldowns, concentrating on using my back and not my arms, I was shocked by the increase in my width of my lats. I would have to say my opinion would be try what works 4 you, experiment. Doing pulldowns doesnt mean you are lazy or a pussy. U might be lazy or a pussy if U just listen to everybody else and not finds what works best 4 U! Dont mean to offend anybody, sorry if I did.

excellent article; i was kind of suprised he didn't mention horizontal-plane pullups, but hey, can't have everything

How many times a week should these chining routines be performed for best results?
