Meal of the day for me today (Saturday 9 Nov 13) is a 3 quart mixing bowl over half full of Lucky Charms and skim milk.
Oh man that was some good stuff right there!
What is that I hear through my pc?
All the bodybuilders mouths dropping open wishing they had a bowl too and saying out loud, "No wonder you powerlifters are fat!"
Well, I'll have you know I'm a powerlifter trapped in a bodybuilder's body. So there, lol.

I dunno why I even do these or b/b for that matter.
Even though I've been known to throw some weight around on the 2 exercises at times.
I just don't seem to get anything from them not matter which style of form I use.
It's just the point of variety for my back that I do these.
Chins, pulldowns and low rows do it more for me.

Comments:
