Started with close grip pull ups and thought I was the shyt, then one day saw someone doing wide grips :ohhh:and I thought I could bang them out easy :mjlol: stepped up and couldn't even do one :mjcry:. That was 2 years ago now I can do both pretty easily 4-5 sets of 10 and same with dips. They're both my favorites to do on back/chest and arm days

seems like my muscle fatigue has gotten worse when doing pullups i can barley get into my 3 or fourth sets without stopin and taking a break to recover, any tips to reduce this and become more efficient?

Spent an hour doing super sets yesterday of pull-ups and ring dips. Sets of 10 for pull-ups and sets of 15 for the dips. Fast but smooth reps. :ahh:
