Sweet. Don't be afraid to use a little body english to get some weight up. I'll use lats to get the momentum going in the initial "rolling" part and then really explode the actual extension.
A good controlled negative coming back will really blow those tris up. Try to feel your triceps stretch at the very bottom of the movement.
Southernlord turned me on to these. You'll have to thank him when you get a chance.
SL is the man!
Iv always found it hard to get lats to do the work on pullovers but Ill try. The stretch at the bottom I havnt done but I will do next time, thanks. What rep range? Iv been doing 9-11 reps but Ill add 5lbs to them soon and it will probably drop to more like 6-9...

I'd do 10-12 until you have the form down pat and then up the weight and go down to 6-8.
What I ate today:
barely worth posting up I hardly ate anything today, I somtimes have days like this when Im just never hungry
Wakeup at 1.00pm lol:
1 cup coffee then made the following shake:
800ml milk
2 raw eggs
30g whey
2 bananas
5 tbsp ANPB
