At 6'2" 230+lbs, pull-ups fucking suck. And I hate being the big-ass dude over on the assisted pull-up machine in order to get 4 sets of 10-12 pull-ups. I can bent-over row 250lbs with strict form, but can't do more than 2 sets of 12 pull-ups without needing the sissy bar. Pisses me off to no end. I've seen other guys who were weaker than me at every other lift repping out on pull-ups. Maybe it's genetics? i.e.- long arms and torso? Either way, I do feel them working and still believe them to be the best back builder overall. Pull-ups for width and overall size, rows for thickness and deep cuts. My .02
