I wight 250 when I do pullups.. because I strap a 45 lbs plate to my waist.

I weigh 268, and I'm not slim... so, no, I don't. When I hit 200 lean, I plan on doing them often.

I'm around 280, and haven't tried them yet since I got back in the gym. I'm sure I could bust out 3 or so, but I won't try it until I'm confident that I could do 3 full sets.

I can do my own body weight... 10, 8, 5..and then Im pooped and move on to the lat pull down.

[Behemoth]

I'm at 279.5...down from 302lbs....and I can do a couple.

But I can do weighted dips....

I'm not over 250 but at 240 I can do 12 for my first set. The key is to build up with ladders. Do a single, rest a minute then do two, rest a minute and do three. You get the picture. Before I really tried to improve them I could do two or three reps tops.

I'm now up to twenty reps for my first set @ 240 lbs and add a 45lb plate for reps of five after my first set.
