    i was doing pull ups wrong for months. i use to do 10 reps until i realized my form was wrong. Now i am doing around 4 reps of 4 sets each wide grip, close grip & chin up. so i do 12 reps all up. since doing proper form i have been feeling my back, back of shoulder & lats the following day, like they are sore as hell. So it seems w/ proper form it is properly working my muscles.

    I did the same thing with pushups.  Was doing 4 sets of 50 and figured out I was cheating.  Now I do 4 sets of 35.

    Right, big boys over 220. How much can you DEEP squat for reps to 15?

    Skinny leggers can do reps all day long.

    height

    weight

    squat reps DD, and 6-8 power. Then talk about the wide gripped pullups.You're not getting more than 7 unless you're on the shit.

    222 lbs   12 reps with a 45lb weight chained to the belt

    damn if you can really do that your really strong.

    i've seen Michael Phelps do pulls up with a weighted vest and i don't think he did 12. i think he did around 8-10.

    My other question is are you doing the pull up correctly?
    going all the way down then all the way up
