    Well since no one had much to say about my training regime it must be flawless .......

    One problem area im having is doing Pull ups, I can barely do any I weigh 190, I can bench 230, but I seem to always have a hard time doing pull ups although I can do dips easy.... What is another exercise to help me with pull ups?

    seated rows, lat pull downs, and use an assisted pull-up/dip machine. Use as much weight as neccessary on the assist and work your way down to none. Positioning yourself on the bar in the "up" position on the bar and coming down slowly (reverse pull-ups) will help also.


    I had a hard time with pull-ups before I enlisted, and all of these helped tremendously.

    just to clarify a bit... seated rows, or anything that works your upper back, will help

    break the 200lb barrier

    Here you go...
    first off for pull-ups do a search on the web for "Recon Ron's Pullups" or "Recon Ron" or similar...if you find it, it will give you a Marine Corps pullup routine that will get you to increase pull-ups.

    For your workout, I'd segregate body parts by day. I'm a big believer in having "Chest day" "Shoulder day" "Arms day" etc on different days / or workouts. This has to do with focus and intensity.

    You should be doing full range-of-motion reps - none of that half-way bullsh- and you should be doing 8-12 reps to failure @ 4-6 sets.

    To break the 200lbs barrier you need to, have to, must do power lifts - squats, and dead lifts. I like to squat on my back day or arms day. I like to dead lift on my chest or shoulder day. I do these at the end of my workout.

    If you start to power lift, add a protein/creatine supplement to your diet and you'll add 10lbs in probably less than a couple months.
